Firefighters could be seen performing CPR on the child, who’d been trapped on the second floor of the burning home.

The store was evacuated and no injuries were reported.

The East Anaheim Plaza shopping center on Anaheim Street in Central Long Beach was destroyed in an overnight four-alarm fire, according to Fire Department officials.

Long Beach Fire Department personnel were dispatched around 4:28 a.m. to the 5600 block of Atlantic Avenue after someone reported seeing fire coming from the strip mall.

Officials say the fire broke out sometime around 3:38 p.m.in the 1100 block of East Anaheim Street.

The firefighter was pulled out of the blaze after calling for help on his radio and taken to a hospital in an unknown condition.

When fire crews arrived, they witnessed heavy flames coming from the back of a one-story commercial building and one of its garage areas, prompting the second-alarm response, Long Beach Fire Cpt. Jack Crabtree said. 

The garage was fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived, according to the OCFA, but crews were able to keep the blaze from spreading to the attached home.

Fire crews rushed to Locust Avenue and 10th Street at around 2:40 p.m. after reports of heavy smoke emanating from a commercial building. 

“It doesn’t help me to cry or be mad about it,” Brenae Gross says. “We’re lucky nobody got hurt.”
