A brush fire in Los Angeles' Laurel Canyon and Hollywood Bowl prompted evacuation orders on Wednesday night, highlighting the fire's rapid escalation from 10 to 43 acres.
Evacuations started shortly after the Sunset Fire was reported due to its location in hilly areas with narrow winding roads, demonstrating the dangers of wildfires in urban settings.
The Sunset Fire's containment was quick, with officials lifting the evacuation order by Thursday morning, but the fire's proximity to residential areas raised significant safety concerns.
The fire began in Runyon Canyon Park and threatened neighborhoods bounded by major roads, illustrating the ongoing challenges cities face during fire season.
