ALTADENA, Calif. (Gray News) – A man returned to his neighborhood to find that his house was the only one not destroyed by the Eaton Fire in Altadena, California.
Enrique Balcazar documented the destruction in a video that he posted on Facebook.
“From what I can see, every house is burned down on my block except for my house,” he said in the video.
Balcazar fought back tears as he walked towards his home.
“Why do I deserve this? I don’t know. I don’t think I deserve it, but God bless everybody else,” he said in the video.
Balcazar said in the video that he did not know if his home was covered by insurance.
He did have a little bit of fire damage on the outside wall of his garage.
