- Crews battled a large wildfire that erupted in Riverside County on Saturday afternoon, prompting evacuations.
Named the “Gavilan Fire,” the blaze was first reported near Gavilan and Idaleona Roads in Gavilan Hills around 3:30 p.m.
The fire has spread from 30 acres to 250 acres so far and is “burning in heavy fuels,” according to CAL FIRE/Riverside County Fire Department. The flames are continuing to grow with about 25 percent containment by 8:30 p.m.
Fire crews have stopped all forward progress of the blaze near Lake Mathews by 8 p.m. Multiple air tankers were seen dropping around 9,400 gallons of flame retardant on the brush-heavy area.

My son is on the front lines of this fire. It takes close to 10 years of working out and being in shape to be able to spend 24 hours on the fire line in 100 degree heat.
To those who say, thank him for his service. He is not fan of that expression.
🙏 Prayers.
God in name Christ please father care all people 🙏
This is a yearly thing in CA
Poor people 😢
I wonder who starts all these fires on purpose to make a point
Stupid comment.

@@Ioncandi Car fire.

God care all family each place Faire 🙏
Amazed this guy is still doing the heli reporting all these years.
🙏
of course the media has to over dramatize with the word "massive" 150 acres isnt massive.
Right? The Rabbit fire is at 7600 acres and not contained. So wtf?
It appears they have lit a back burn from the road south and east to burn back to the burnt areas. Should be out soon.
CAL FIRE is smart.
Very costly fire
Nope.
@@maxsmith695 so the people who are fighting fires do it for free? Get off whatever it is you're on.
@@greeneyes2797 -315 personnel assigned. When it reaches 3000, then it is costly. carry on.
@@maxsmith695 can you stop with the military attitude, all the burnt land and everything else cost money soldier! You're dismissed!!
🙏🙏🙏
Whats new, welcome to California. Every summer, never fails. It sad. You can tell that area has burned in the last few yrs. Not much vegetation, just grasses.
Firefighters start them. It’s called job security. They don’t work all winter so they need to make enough money to get them through till the next fire season. It’s a no brainer
Actually , turtles start them. try to keep up.
🇵🇷♥️🇮🇱♥️🇺🇸
What on Earth is going on? This is outrageous! Perhaps it’s time to demonstrate my ability to change weather, perhaps it’s time for government to sign an agreement with me, we are talking serious money and good weather deal.
All these fires a coincidence or arson?
Im in gavilan 😢
Find the Tesla then you will find the fire
Esau is the end of the world and Jacob is the beginning of it that followth. Who's Esau then Who's Jacob ?

God be with all the people who live there! And the folk working on that fire 🔥 n heat !safety!🫡🙏🇺🇸
