Fire along Interstate 405 near Getty Center
A growing brush fire was threatening hundreds of homes in Brentwood and other Westside hillside communities, burning several structures and prompting widespread evacuations.
Fire officials advised residents outside the mandatory zone but in the area to prepare to evacuate. UCLA and other areas east of Interstate 405 are not under an evacuation warning.“We have an active and growing brush fire,” the Los Angeles Fire Department said in an advisory. “For those living in this area, you must be prepared to evacuate.”
An unknown number of structures have been damaged by the fire moving in a westward direction. Helicopters and aircraft were making night drops along the fire line and in their fight to protect homes. Authorities were driving through neighborhood streets with flashing emergency lights ordering residents to evacuate.
