Fire Engulfs Shed, No injuries Reported

Investigators trying to determine if a cigarette was the cause of the fire.

One minute, Michael Hepding was enjoying an average evening at home. The next, he was fearing for his family's life.

A shed ignited behind a Glendora home in the 500 block of East Foothill Blvd. Wednesday evening.

The fire might have been caused by a lit cigarette, Hepding said. The fire completely destroyed the shed, its contents and portions of a fence. Power lines were also compromized in the fire. How wide spread an outage is not known at this time.

Edison cres, however, were on scene within a couple hours of the fire.
