Los Angeles Fire Department crews in air and on the ground managed to quickly contain a brush fire that broke out near the Lopez Canyon Landfill on the 12031 block of North Lopez Canyon Road.
Sky2 was over the scene of the fire which grew to as many as four acres of burning light grass and medium brush on a hill near the landfill.
It’s unclear exactly how the fire started but a weeks’ worth of high-powered and hot temperatures have spread fires all across the Southland.
As of 7:00 pm, nearly 70 firefighters on the scene managed to halt the forward progress of the flames and had contained 60% of the blaze.
Fortunately, there was no structure threat or evacuation in this fire.
The Lopez Canyon area is in the northeast part of the San Fernando Valley, near Lake View Terrace, which is essentially the border of LA County and LA City.
