Man killed in Glendora house fire – NBC Los Angeles
One person is dead and his wife is missing following a house fire Monday morning in Glendora, according to authorities.
Firefighters responded at about 2:30 a.m. to the home in the 700 block of Danecroft Avenue in the San Gabriel Valley community. The fire was knocked down at about 3 a.m.
During a search inside the house, firefighters found the 71-year-old man, who died at the scene. At least one dog was found dead at the rear of the house.
During a Monday morning news conference, Lt. Steve De Jong said deputies are attempting to locate the man’s 68-year-old wife.
“We’re concerned about her welfare,” De Jong said, adding that family members told the agency the couple was in the process of a divorce.
The woman’s vehicle was at the house. She was last seen Sunday night with family, De Jong said.
Later Monday, City News Service, citing the Los Angeles County medical examiner, reported that a second body was found at the scene. Details about that person’s identity were not immediately available.
Glendora police responded to the home about a month ago after a domestic violence report, De Jong said.
Details about a cause of the fire were not immediately available. Yellow police tape was placed in front of the house.

Video released in domestic assault case of former Dodgers pitcher Julio Urías – NBC Los Angeles
The violent incident involving former MLB pitcher Julio Urías has surfaced, revealing troubling behavior that may have ended his baseball career with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
A 72-second recording by a bystander obtained by the LA Times and California Highway Patrol shows the moments the former MLB pitcher lost his cool.
In the video, Urías is seen charging at two women, one of whom is believed to be his wife. He grabs her and slams her against a fence, while multiple bystanders rush to intervene. Urias also takes a swing at her, cursing in Spanish.
This alarming incident occurred last September outside BMO Stadium in downtown Los Angeles after an LAFC game. Following the event, Urías was arrested, and the video aligns with the initial police report from that day.
Urías later pled no contest to a misdemeanor domestic battery charge. He was sentenced to 36 months of probation and required to complete a domestic violence counseling program, among other conditions. The Dodgers responded by placing him on administrative leave, and he has not played since, remaining a free agent.
Major League Baseball is currently conducting its own investigation and has not yet commented on the newly released video.
However, the footage has led some fans to conclude that Urías should not be allowed to play professional baseball again.
“He lost his opportunity by putting his hands on a woman. No man should ever put his hands to hit a woman,” said Dodgers fan Eddie Garcia.
Dodgers pitcher Julio Urías was arrested Sunday on suspicion of domestic violence, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
This marks the second domestic violence incident involving Urias. In 2019, he faced a suspension for reportedly pushing a woman to the ground in a parking lot, though he was not criminally charged in that case.
