It's been reported that a call was made to emergency services in the early morning hours and "all occupants were out of the home" by the time the fire department arrived. The inferno was so large that it took 94 firefighter and 13 fire engines more than two hours to get the flames under control.
Four ambulances were also there to help assess potential injuries and it was confirmed one individual staying at the actress' home was treated for smoke inhalation. Members of the L.A.P.D. were said to be present to help with "traffic control."
It is unclear how the fire started, but it was traced to a back room in Delevingne's home where it then spread to the attic and collapsed a portion of the roof.
