HOLLYWOOD HILLS\u2014On Tuesday, September 2, the Los Angeles Fire Department reported a brush fire at 2199 N. Sunset Plaza Drive. The blaze was reported at 6:40 p.m.<\/p>\n
First responding companies report one vehicle on fire, with flames burning uphill through medium-heavy brush toward one hillside home. Air and ground resources from both LAFD and LA County Fire were sent en route.<\/p>\n
Approximately a 1\/4 acre of heavy vegetation was burning uphill. There were no structures currently involved, but several homes uphill were threatened and being prioritized for structure defense. Water drops from LAFD helicopters significantly slowed fire progress below the homes. Approximately 80 LAFD personnel were dispatched, including air resources and hand crews.<\/p>\n
By 7:30 p.m., officials reported all active flames have been extinguished and forward progress stopped. Helicopters will continue water drops between homes to cool hotspots, while hand crews begin working toward 100 percent containment on the very steep terrain. Shelter-in-place orders issued for Genasys zones LFD-0817, LFD-0819, and LFD-0911 (bit.ly\/sunset-plaza-ic), which were later lifted. There were no injuries reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
