A new lawsuit alleges that The Boeing Co. was responsible for the deadly wildfire that ravaged Southern California last fall.

The suit, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, is the first to accuse Boeing of playing a role in the Woolsey Fire, which scorched more than 100,000 acres and killed three people in the Los Angeles area. The suit also names Southern California Edison and its parent corporation, Edison International, which face 18 other lawsuits over the Nov. 8 fire.
