Overview

• The Canyon Fire has scorched about 5,370 acres and reached 28% containment following minimal overnight activity.
• Authorities downgraded evacuation orders for roughly 4,200 Los Angeles County residents and four Ventura County zones, converting them to warnings as the fire’s spread slowed.
• More than 400 personnel, supported by helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, continue constructing control lines and defending powerlines in steep terrain.
• Three firefighters suffered minor injuries and were treated at a local hospital as a precaution, with no civilian casualties or structural damage reported.
• Smoke prompted air quality advisories along the I-5 corridor near Castaic Lake, and dry fuels and high temperatures are expected to sustain fire risk through the weekend.
