A Los Angeles firefighter was lifted from a litter basket from a burning Venice home after being trapped.
The firefighter was injured amid battling a fire which occurred at a vacant two-story home at 2214 S. Glyndon Ave over the weekend. Crews chose that method because he was unable to descend the ladder from the roof. He sustained a non-life threatening injury and is expected to recover.
The home was significantly damaged, while the attic was completely engulfed in flames.
