At least two lawsuits have been filed against Southern California Edison, alleging that faulty power lines may have sparked the Eaton Fire. Investigators from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives have not determined the cause of the fire and say their investigation into the Eaton and Palisades wildfires is in the early stages. Videos and witness accounts circulating on social media suggest flames broke out under power lines in Eaton Canyon. The complaint accuses Southern California Edison of negligence and code violations for mishandling power safety shut-offs during extreme fire conditions and high winds.
