PASADENA - The past five days have been busy ones for Pasadena firefighters, who have battled six fires in that span, officials said.

"I don't think I've been assigned to as many (fires) in such a short time," said Samardzich.

Fire Department spokeswoman Lisa Derderian said the firefighters were up to the challenge, however. "This is what they train for every day," she said.

Firefighters responded to a fire at the Pasadena Fish Market, 181 E. Orange Grove Ave., said Derderian.

What was believed to have begun as a grease fire spread into the restaurant's ventilation system, she said. No one was inside the restaurant, which was closed for business, Derderian said.
