CAMARILLO, Calif. -- Hundreds of residents were forced to flee a fast-moving wildfire, called the Mountain Fire, in Ventura County that has already damaged multiple homes. Chris Cristi in AIR7 estimated that 40-50 homes have burned from what he could see.
The out-of-control wildfire broke out near the 7900 block of Balcom Canyon Road and Bradley Road at approximately 9:30 a.m. The fire department described the incident as a two-alarm fire that burned 250 acres, but it quickly exploded and is now more than 10,000 acres.
The fire crossed Highway 118 and is now threatening the Camarillo Heights area.
