Authorities evacuated at least 1,200 people Saturday as a wildfire in Los Angeles County spread over thousands of acres near a major highway and threatened nearby structures, officials said.
California State Park Services evacuated 1,200 people from the Hungry Valley recreation area in Gorman. Both Hungry Valley and the Pyramid Lake reservoir were closed as a result of the fire threat.
The fire was moving southeast toward Pyramid Lake and crews were constructing perimeter fire lines while aircraft worked against limited visibility to stop the fire's progress, the fire department said.
