Lake Fire Burns 10,000 Acres in Los Angeles County
Fire crews in Los Angeles County were battling a fast-moving brush fire on August 12 and 13, as it grew to 10,000 acres, reports said.
Known as the Lake Fire, the incident began at 3:38 pm, according to fire officials. Within 15 minutes of the original report of a fire, the blaze had grown to 50 acres; within 45 minutes, 400 acres were burned, the LA County Fire Department said.
Chief Deputy of Emergency Operations David Richardson said on Wednesday night that the fast-moving fire had split off in two directions, both towards Pine Canyon Road and towards Lake Hughes Road. Firefighters from multiple agencies responded to the fire.
Sheriff’s deputies evacuated residents in several threatened areas just after 8:15 pm, due to the “extreme fire behavior.”
The Red Cross opened local shelters for evacuated residents in Castaic and Palmdale. As of August 12, the fire was zero percent contained and had burned 10,000 acres.
