    LOS ANGELES, California — South El Monte — Three people are dead and a firefighter was injured after a massive blaze at a tire shop in Southern California. The fire is believed to have started with molitov cocktails.

    One man apparently burned alive after becoming trapped behind a locked fence with razor wire. The victim was trying to escape, but he was overcome by the flames before firefighters could reach him.

    Two other victims were found after the fire was put out. A firefighter suffered burns to his face but is expected to survive.

    A 911 caller reported that molitov cocktails were thrown at the business, Cheque Tire Shop.

    The identity of the victims has not been released. A dog was also recovered from the scene.

    The suspects were seen fleeing the scene in a white Chevrolet Silverado pickup-truck.

    An investigation is ongoing.
