Eco-terrorism?

KTLA reported:
A four-story structure fire in Studio City erupted and quickly spread to nearby hillside homes on Wednesday night.
The Los Angeles Fire Department reported the fire on the 3000 block of North Sunswept Drive at 8:52 p.m., saying the residence was “well involved in fire with exposures and vegetation.”
The four-story home collapsed from the flames and the wind picked up the embers to nearby brush, according to officials.
“We did just have the winds pick up again so we are seeing some ember casting from that four-story structure,” Adam Vangerpen, a spokesperson with LAFD, told KTLA around 9:30 p.m. “Our hope is to hit it hard, and we’re trying to keep it out of the brush right now.”
Vangerpen said this fire was not connected to the Sunset Fire currently burning in the Hollywood Hills.
A massive fire broke out in the Hollywood Hills near Runyon Canyon and the “Hollywood” sign Wednesday night.
The new fire dubbed “The Sunset Fire” came out of nowhere and exploded.
