5 homes burn, firefighters hurt in San Bernardino brush fire

Five homes were burned Saturday in a fast-moving fire in San Bernardino, Calif., prompting evacuations and an assault by firefighters.

The fire was burning south of California State, San Bernardino and north of Interstate 215. At least 10 acres have burned, some along Kendall Drive. Three firefighters and one civilian suffered injuries, according to the San Bernardino Fire Department.

Residents in the path of the fire were evacuated.

The Kendall fire was one of several burning in California Saturday.

The Pine fire burning in the Sespe Wilderness north of Ojai has charred more than 1,450 acres, officials said Saturday.

The fire, which started in the Los Padres National Forest about 9 a.m. Thursday, is zero percent contained, officials said.

There are about 50 structures threatened but there are no mandatory evacuations in place, authorities said.

The San Bernardino blaze comes a week after deadly fires in Kern and San Diego counties destroyed more than 150 homes.
