A massive four-alarm fire in San Francisco's Mission District left one person dead and six injured.[4] Along with the offices of nearby nonprofit Mission Local, the blaze completely destroyed LaFata's apartment of 18 years, all his belongings and gear, and the studio in which he recorded Gold Chains material.[5]
