windy. the fire created all kinds of smoke that it was like thick fog. not to mention it was misty at the time. so it made them, they say hard to hold on to some of their equipment, but they were able to pounce on it. short time after that, they knocked down the flames. but in the meantime, they did tell their everybody nearby, stay inside. close your windows. don't even step outside because breathing would be very difficult. i did talk to one woman and she didn't want to go on camera, but she said it wasn't the fire. it wasn't the commotion, but it was the smoke that actually woke her up inside her home. she's very rattled by what happened as far as this particular place, the age of the building actually save the building because it's much older they use redwood and redwood is very durable. even during intense fires like this one, which is why it never collapsed. that allowed

investigators to go inside as early as about 2 and a half hours after the fire was knocked down. so they're going through there right now. the fire department did such a wonderful job that the damage was contained only to the front of the building. no damage to either buildings on the left or the right side. and again, everybody moving about right now. but this is multi million dollars worth of damage to this house. back to you. >> ok, well, thank you for that update. and another big story that we're following. an east bay community is mourning the loss of the whole family that died in a car crash. test. a gators say this family of 4 was in a car when it crashed into a tree and caught fire. kron. 4 sarah stinson explains. >> people continue to drop off flowers here on foothill road where a mom dad and their 2 kids died in a car crash. neighbors of the family say they were headed home from a friend's house when the crash happened. >> it's sad and tragic.
