A RETIRED actress has died trapped in her home as the horror Eaton Fire burned it to the ground.
Dalyce Curry, who appeared in The Blues Brothers, died at 95 years old, her family confirmed.
Known as “Momma D” to loved ones, Mrs Curry’s body was discovered by first responders at 6 pm on Sunday amid the rubble of her Altadena home just north of Los Angeles.
Her great-granddaughter, Dalyce Kelley, broke the tragic news on Facebook.
She wrote: “About an hour ago the coroner confirmed her remains were found at the property.”
Kelley also shared haunting footage of the devastation, showing her great-grandmother’s scorched Cadillac and the remnants of the home reduced to ash.
“This was the kitchen,” Kelley said in the video as she pointed out a refrigerator, a bicycle, and a door amid the debris.
The footage revealed a post-apocalyptic scene, with the sky still glowing orange from the wildfire raging nearby.
The Eaton Fire is one of several wildfires wreaking havoc in the Los Angeles area, igniting fresh outrage over politicians’ handling of wildfire prevention.
