Nick Nolte’s House Burns

Posted by in Interesting News | 0 comments

The aging Hollywood actor suffered minor injuries after trying to save his house in Malibu yesterday.
TMZ reports that “Nolte suffered smoke inhalation and abrasions. He was treated on the scene and plans to see his doctor today.”

It took firefighters about 10 minutes to douse the blaze, which damaged part of the house, Padilla said.

A statement from the county Sheriff’s Department said Nolte broke a window to escape the home but Padilla said he could not confirm that account.

The statement also said the Fire Department estimated the damage at $3.5 million but Padilla said the estimate actually was $1.5 million.

Nolte’s publicist, Arnold Robinson, said in an e-mail statement that there was an electrical fire at the house but no one was injured and there was no structural damage.
