Containment of Southern California wildfire increases
All evacuations have been lifted in the vicinity of a wildfire that threatened homes in the Southern California desert community of San Jacinto during the weekend.
The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection says the 490-acre fire is 40% contained.
The fire erupted in grass and brush shortly before 6 in the evening Saturday about 80 miles southeast of Los Angeles.
At one point it threatened a subdivision, triggering mandatory evacuation orders for about 60 homes.
The cause remains under investigation.
