HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Nine cars were destroyed after a massive fire ripped through a carport in Hollywood overnight.

Video shows the flames engulfing the structure and vehicles, though they were confined to the carport and did not spread. They did, however, reach the power lines above the carport.

No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire unknown.

This comes after another carport fire that broke out less than a mile away on Fountain Avenue in West Hollywood Tuesday night. Three cars were burned in that incident. It's unclear if the two are related in any way.
