𝗕𝗨𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗦: LAFD & SMFD Knock Down RV Fire Before It Jumps the Block in Venice

VENICE, CA — Saturday, June 8, 2025 — Firefighters from the Los Angeles Fire Department and Santa Monica Fire Department worked in coordination early Saturday morning to extinguish a burning Jamboree motorhome on the 100 block of Pacific Avenue in Venice. The incident was reported at approximately 8:30 a.m. Responding units quickly arrived to find the RV fully engulfed in flames near a commercial building. The primary concern, officials said, was preventing the fire from spreading to nearby structures. Several adjacent palm trees were scorched, but firefighters successfully contained the flames before the commercial property sustained damage. The owner of the RV was not present at the time of the fire, and no injuries were reported. The cause of the blaze remains under investigation. Traffic control officers from both jurisdictions coordinated closures around the incident. Santa Monica personnel closed the north side of Pacific Avenue at Marine Street, while Los Angeles crews shut down access from the south at Navy Street. Santa Monica Fire Department’s Truck 2 and Los Angeles Fire Department’s Truck 63 worked side-by-side to suppress the fire. After the incident was brought under control, firefighters from both departments took a moment to exchange tactics and discuss equipment—highlighting the strong inter-agency bond between crews. The scene was declared clear by 9:24 a.m.
