Ashley Sharp, a television news reporter with CBS Sacramento, was documenting the Eaton Fire’s destruction on TikTok when she noticed a comment from one social media user named Katie who asked Sharp to check on the status of her home.
“Katie here commented on one of my videos and asked that we check out her family home,” Sharp explained at the beginning of a video clip posted on Thursday, Jan. 9. “I just want to show you and tell you I’m so sorry,” Sharp said as she changed the angle of the camera to show the remnants of the burned home in question.

Though Sharp was the one to deliver devastating news to one Los Angeles homeowner, she was later able to offer a much happier update to another.
The Eaton Fire was one of several that broke out in the Los Angeles area this week. After igniting on Tuesday, Jan. 7, the fire tore through Altadena. It had burned more than 13,600 acres and was 3 percent contained as of 4 p.m. local time on Friday, Jan. 10, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire).
