Looked up the archived microfiche of the LA Times for September 10, 1989.

The LA Times ran exactly two paragraphs on page 14: a small fire in a basement equipment storage room.
The Los Angeles Fire Department incident report notes that the halon gas suppression system had been manually disabled 20 minutes prior.

Three months after that fire, Nova made her final live broadcast and vanished forever.

My uncle worked in commercial real estate in Westwood. He said Federal Marshals sealed the 14th floor and basement of Orion Tower for three weeks after the fire.
