April 21 - SoCal Edison Removes Equipment Near Eaton Fire Site Amid Ongoing Lawsuits

Southern California Edison (SCE) crews have started removing electrical towers and power lines from the Eaton Fire burn area in Pasadena and Altadena, using helicopters to transport the equipment for further inspection. The utility says this action is part of the ongoing investigation into the January wildfire, which killed several people and caused widespread destruction. Although the official cause of the fire remains under investigation, video evidence shows electrical flashes from a decommissioned SCE tower just before the fire began.
