The Eaton Fire is still under investigation; however, there is reason to believe that a high-voltage power line may have ignited the fire.
According to ABC Los Angeles, witness accounts and surveillance video suggest that a downed power line owned by Southern California Edison (SCE) may have sparked the fire.
