CoastalFire in Laguna Niguel destroys multiple homes, forces evacuations
More than 20 homes have been destroyed in a fire in Aliso Canyon in Orange Canyon that has consumed at least 200 acres and is 0% contained, according to reports from fire authorities.
Southern California Edison, which has personnel and investigators on the scene, has sent a letter to the state Public Utilities Commission regarding"circuit activity occurring close in time to the reported time" of the fire, CBS 2 reported. The flames spread quickly as they tore through thick brush on the hillside, aided by ocean winds that sparked spot fires ahead of the main blaze. The fire pushed its way uphill, advancing on Aliso Summit Trail and into the neighboring multimillion-dollar estates.
"My clothes smell from the hour I spent in the house," Nuss-Galles told The Times."It's just plumes of smoke. It's very scary."The flames advanced even as fixed-wing planes dropped fire retardant on the hillside in hopes of slowing the advance of the flames. Several water- dropping helicopters were also being employed in the firefight.
