CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CA — Three separate fires tore through parts of Contra Costa County overnight, sending crews to contain flames at homes and businesses in Concord and Orinda.
Firefighters responded to a residential structure fire in the 4000 block of Joan Avenue in Concord, where crews moved quickly to control the blaze and protect nearby properties.
A second call in Concord pulled responders to Knoll Drive, where a commercial building caught fire, adding pressure to already stretched overnight resources.
Across the hills in Orinda, crews confronted another commercial structure fire on Orindawoods Drive, working to keep flames from spreading in a developed area.
Authorities have not yet released information on injuries or the extent of damage, and the causes of all three fires remain under investigation.
