OAKLAND — A veteran Oakland Fire Department captain who inspected the Ghost Ship warehouse in September 2014 came away with so many safety concerns that he said he wrote a report detailing the potentially disastrous conditions.

But Fire Capt. George Freelen said he was told by master tenant Derek Almena during the visit that no one lived at the building, which later went up in flames on Dec. 2, 2016, killing 36 people, most of whom were gathered for a dance party.
