No specifics here on the ground right now but if/when we hear word, we will do our best to keep you up to date. We’re back on the air at 10.
@TheRickChambers @KTLA Do you have any idea about Ramuda Lane? It’s a small street off Bell Canyon Road and it’s below/down the hill from Hitching Post and the end of Flintlock. I saw one house as an uncontrolled burn on the KTLA footage & couldn’t tell exactly where it was.
