Three people died in a house fire Tuesday morning in the city of Arcadia, according to authorities.

Firefighters responded to reports of smoke coming out of a two-story home and an attached garage in the 5300 block of Tyler Avenue shortly after 1 a.m., the Los Angeles County Fire Department said.

When they arrived, the house and garage were fully engulfed in flames, department spokesperson Craig Little said. The fire was extinguished about 30 minutes later.
