Southern California Edison acknowledged its equipment may have sparked the Hurst Fire, which burned 800 acres without fatalities. Investigations continue regarding its potential link to the deadly Eaton Fire, which killed 17 and scorched 14,000 acres. The utility remains under scrutiny following concerns raised by videos suggesting arcing electrical connections. Although some lawsuits claim negligence, SCE stresses no conclusive evidence currently links its equipment to either fire, maintaining investigations are ongoing and cooperation with fire agencies is active.
