A fire has damaged a Los Angeles medical marijuana dispensary but no injuries are reported.

Fire Capt. Steve Ruda says the fire was reported at about 5:30 a.m. Monday at the Westchester Collective on the second floor of a two-story commercial building in the Westchester area. The building also houses several other businesses.



It took 69 firefighters an hour to extinguish the blaze.

They probably only needed a handful of firefighters to battle the blaze, but when word got out about what was burning...

In an unrelated story, local grocery stores in the Los Angeles area are baffled about the sudden overwhelming demand for Oreo cookies on Monday morning.
