A wildfire just northwest of Los Angeles on Tuesday forced evacuations, knocked out power and closed roads.
The Franklin Fire spread overnight in Malibu near the Pacific Coast Highway that lies along the ocean out of LA.
Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone said Tuesday that the blaze was uncontrolled.
"The fire is currently estimated at over 2,200 acres, and we have 700 firefighting personnel assigned. Because of the great work of the firefighters that were on scene, we have only a minimal number of homes destroyed. Thankfully, we have no reports of serious injuries or fatalities. And this fire is not contained.”
Burned homes smoldered on Tuesday as aircraft dropped red fire retardant on burning vegetation.
