Los Angeles County fire chief Anthony Marrone says two people have been killed in the Eaton fire, one of four blazes that are growing in Los Angeles, and many are injured.
“We have over 500 personnel assigned, and unfortunately, we have two reported fatalities, two civilians,” he says of the Eaton fire, which is raging near Altadena.
He adds that it has grown and has burned across 2,000 acres so far.
The three other blazes are the Palisades, Woodley and Hurst fires.
“We have well over 5,000 acres that have burned, and the fire is growing,” Mr Marrone says of the one in Pacific Palisades.
Both the Eaton and Palisades fire are at 0% containment, he says, meaning firefighters cannot control them.
