Eaton, Palisades fires continue burning as new wildfires erupts

The California National Guard is deploying to Los Angeles County to support law enforcement efforts in the region, the governor's office announced Thursday.

"Thanks to the incredible work of our first responders and emergency personnel, we're throwing everything at our disposal -- including our National Guard servicemembers -- to protect communities in the days to come," Newsom said in a statement. "And to those who would seek to take advantage of evacuated communities, let me be clear: looting will not be tolerated."

According to the governor's office, the Guard members "will be stationed at traffic control points to ensure the safety of the surrounding community. In addition, their support helps build capacity of local law enforcement to support their respective areas."

Twenty people have been arrested so far for allegedly looting homes evacuated by residents fleeing wildfires, L.A. County Supervisor Kathryn Barger said Thursday.

City News Service contributed to this report.

More than 5,300 structures burned in Pacific Palisades, and the fire killed 2 people, said Los Angeles Fire Chief Kristin Crowley.

Walter and Yalda Seace's Altadena home is now nothing but rubble due to the Eaton Fire.

"It's overwhelming. I don't know how we're going to get through it...We will it's just going to be a long process," Yalda Seace said.

The conditions they witnessed Tuesday night as flames approached - it's something they've never experienced before. It was all caught on their Ring cameras, overlooking their home at the top of Altadena Drive.

Walter and Yalda Seace's Altadena home is now nothing but rubble due to the Eaton Fire. The couple witnessed the destruction on their Ring camera.

Still in that moment, they had hope they'd have a home to come back to - never did they expect to their home burned to the ground.

"It's going to be OK. We're going to get back. It'll be fine. Unfortunately there are so many other people in the same situation it's devastating actually," Yalda Seace said.

"Here we are with nothing, 40 years of life gone overnight. It's unfathomable," said Walter Seace.

What they do have is each other - basic belongings they were able to grab during their quick evacuation and their two dogs. While this home is gone, they say they plan to rebuild.

"This is home. I've always wanted to live in Altadena. This is home, I will rebuild. I'll find a way," Yalda Seace said.

Walter and Yalda Seace's family created a GoFundMe account to help them rebuild.

World Central Kitchen is answering the call to help those impacted by the devastating Southern California wildfires.

Started by Chef Jose Andres, the nonprofit responds to disasters around the world.

In addition to coordinating with food truck partners to provide meals for firefighters and other first responders, World Central Kitchen is also sending teams from the Westside to the San Gabriel Valley with food and water for evacuees.
