Ashley Greene’s Hollywood apartment goes up in flames, dog dies

Twilight actress Ashley Greene’s Hollywood apartment went up in flames today. While the actress was thankfully not harmed, one of her dogs died.

A firefighter told TMZ that Greene, her boyfriend and her brother were home sleeping at the time when the fire broke out. They woke up and ran out of the apartment, but the two men rushed back in to try to save her two dogs. One of the dogs died, while the other was taken by Animal Control to get a health check.

A resident told TMZ that she may have heard glass breaking before the fire started.

Los Angeles Fire Department Inspector Johnson told Radar Online that the fire started at 9:50 a.m. local time. “We made an aggressive fire attack...Our team saw smoke and fire coming from the third floor.”

Johnson, who said he couldn’t confirm at the time if any animals were hurt, told Radar, “We have reports of two patrons that were burned, so they were treated by the paramedics and sent to the hospital.”

The firefighters managed to put out the flames minutes later and are currently on the scene for “salvage and overhaul.”

Greene’s rep confirmed that the fire was at her apartment, but only told People, “The cause is undetermined.”

Earlier today, we reported that Greene was seen with actor Ryan Phillippe on Wednesday.
