Two people and a cat died in a house fire in Mar Vista early Wednesday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

Fire crews responding to a 911 hang-up call about 2:22 a.m. found a 1,096-square-foot, single-story home on fire in the 3500 block of South May Street, according to a Fire Department news release. Additional crews were assigned.

The flames were fully extinguished by 2:50 a.m.

The earthquakes in Turkey show how big quakes are more likely to cause big aftershocks far from the epicenter. The same could happen in California.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
