The American Red Cross says it’s sending volunteers from across the country to Los Angeles County, including staff from the Northern California region.
"When I went to my bathroom window, I saw that orange hue. I just said I’m on my way. It was frightening. It was like the sky was glowing," said Sigma Scott, an Eaton Fire victim who lived in Altadena. Scott says she called her sister as she was being evacuated and her husband, Dutch Merrick, stayed behind to try and water down their home. Merrick posted the video on his Facebook page."I noticed that our neighbor’s king palm lit up like a Roman candle.
I feel like we were all waiting for somebody to say you got to go now!" said Scott. Scott says they’re staying with family for the time being and, like thousands of others, they’ll have to rebuild their lives. The Northern CA Regional CEO for the Red Cross says they’re sending volunteers from across the country to help survivors in Los Angeles County.
