A helicopter drops water on a fire in the Goldenview area on the Anchorage Hillside on Sunday evening.
Kale Casey, a state fire information officer with the Division of Forestry, estimated its size to be around 0.8 acres. By about 11:37 p.m., the fire -- which crews initially responded to more than two hours earlier -- was 90% contained, according to Casey. Anchorage police blocked off the area, and an officer at the scene earlier Sunday night said residents had evacuated from some homes in the vicinity of the fire. A helicopter made multiple passes to drop water on the blaze.
