Forward progress has been halted on this brush fire, estimated at just over nine total acres. Though flames impacted brush along the south side of Burbank Blvd, firefighters successfully prevented spread north of the road. No injuries reported -- fire companies are proceeding with extreme caution due to damaged trees and branches throughout the burned area. Heavy equipment crews are en route to assist with mop-up and the establishment of bare-earth dozer lines around the perimeter, with full containment expected to require an extended operation into early evening. Motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes and avoid the immediate area. [verified]
