The blaze sparked in the 14500 block of West Olive View Drive sometime before 4:30 a.m.

At least two cars parked in a car port were destroyed before Los Angeles Fire Department crews knocked down the fire.

"I just a bunch of like booms and crashes and glass breaking, came down here and I saw the fire engulf, there was smoking going everywhere, all the way down this hallway, you could see nothing," one man told CBSLA.

At least one person suffered minor injuries, the fire department said.

The cause is under investigation.
