'Cocoon' Star Steve Guttenberg Warns Residents 'Just Get Out'
Actor Steve Guttenberg warned that people living in the area should not delay and "just get out." The 66-year-old "Cocoon" star spoke with KTLA on the scene.
“Don’t worry about your personal property," he said. "Just get out. Get your loved ones and get out.”
Guttenberg added that people leaving their cars should also leave their keys so that someone could move the cars out of the way in an effort to unblock intersections for the fire trucks.
“What’s happening is people take their keys with them as if they’re in a parking lot," he said. "This is not a parking lot. We really need people to move their cars... If you leave your car behind, leave the key in there so a guy like me can move your car so that these fire trucks can get up there."
