What to know about a cold storage warehouse fire in Los Angeles

Los Angeles firefighters are on their sixth day of battling a fire at a massive warehouse near downtown that stores frozen food.

Smoke has billowed from the warehouse, which was covered in solar panels and insulated like a freezer, filling the air surrounding the roughly 500,000-square-foot (46,451-square-meter) facility.

The blaze that broke out Wednesday has been especially challenging for firefighters due to the nature of the facility operated by Michigan-based Lineage in the Boyle Heights neighborhood east of downtown. Firefighters haven't been able to enter the building and are instead fighting the blaze from outside.
