Los Angeles County firefighters aggressively attacked a five
acre wildfire in Munz Ranch today around 3 pm, just south of Lancaster Road and West
of Munz Ranch Road. Firefighters were able to quickly gain control even though
the fire was burning in triple digit temperatures with very low relative humidity. County
units from Lake Hughes and the Antelope Valley including air support from
helicopters hit the flanks quickly as the fire could have been much worse had a
natural barrier not slowed the fire prior to arrival. Cause and origin are
under investigation. Photos Jeff Zimmerman
