Original Note:
LAFD officials confirmed the "handbags" seen in local news reports are actually canvas bags firefighters bring on their engines for various jobs. When tackling small fires, it’s easier to quickly fill the bags with water & extinguish the flames, than it is to haul out a hose. https://www.tmz.com/2025/01/09/los-angeles-wildfires-water-handbags-video-firefighters/
