LOS ANGELES, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- An investigation by the Los Angeles Times has raised new questions about why it took so long to issue evacuation warnings to parts of Los Angeles region devastated by the deadly Eaton Fire earlier this month, said the biggest newspaper in U.S. West Coast on Tuesday.
Records, radio logs and interviews show that residents living west of Lake Avenue in Altadena were not told to evacuate via electronic alerts until many hours after the Eaton Fire started, said the report, adding that residents said they were stunned how long it took to get the evacuation order, and by then many homes in the area were on fire.
