A ferocious new wildfire has erupted in the Hollywood Hills - sparking a mass evacuation of the iconic Hollywood Boulevard amid warnings that another 100,000 residents should be prepared to evacuate their homes.
The hellish, fast-moving inferno sweeping through the Hills triggered the urgent evacuation order at 6pm local time on Wednesday - impacting at least 50 acres already near Runyon Canyon.
At least five people have lost their lives in the devastating natural disaster so far - with 1,000 structures completely obliterated and thousands of people left with nothing but ash across the City of Angels.
Now, the Sunset Fire is set to wreak burning havoc in the celebrity epicenter, causing the famous strip, home to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the TLC Chinese Theatre and the Hollywood Bowl, to be evacuated.
The alert read: 'A Mandatory Evacuation Order is now in place for Laurel Canyon Blvd (on the west) to Mulholland Dr (on the north) to 101 Freeway (on the east) down to Hollywood Blvd (on the south).'
Witnesses who spotted the new blaze said that the flames 'exploded in size,' because the area is fertile with dense brush that is unfortunately spurring on the inferno.
Fire crews are dropping water from the skies in an effort to contain the blaze and stop the spread to nearby neighborhoods.
But embers are beginning to fly ahead of the main fire and catch onto buildings, with video capturing at least one residential building catching alight as of Wednesday evening.

Hollyweird perverts burning all the evidence if them molesting children?
I’m sure the LA crew of homeless drug addicts and thieves in concert with the illegal aliens will provide housing for the snoots whose homes were destroyed. Let them eat cake together.
Never let a crisis go to waste.
That or God has had enough.
The Good Lord bringing down judgements on California...
How LA officials respond to this will tell all.....
And all because California Forestry Service was constrained from properly clearing fuels, and the water authorities didn’t maintain proper water storage. It’s not climate change, it’s a fire ecology mishandled by man. You’d think that California would have learned that lesson a few decades back when Marin County went up in smoke.
“ How LA officials respond to this will tell all.....”
Em… I think we’ve seen it
While all these people who can afford it should have a safe room, the safe room should double as a fire room so that if they have to evacuate, at least they can shove as much of their important personal stuff and irreplaceable stuff into the burn proof room as possible.
Even people without a lot of money can put a small vault somewhere in the yard that they could dump a lot of stuff into, even a waterproof foot locker size container could hold a lot of memories and if they waited too long to flee, it might be better to use the buried locker than the trunk of their car.
“Natural” disaster?
Or “Homeles camps”, Arson, Terrorist taking advantage of conditions that were advertised in advance?
Wonder if those precious immigrants or Hamas started these?
It all depends on how hot the fire burns.
I know a guy who had a “Fireproof safe” in his basement.
Theory was that if there was fire the heat would mostly rise and the basement would be least affected.
Both upper floors collapsed into the basement.
When the safe was opened NOTHING not made of steel remained.
[Now, the Sunset Fire is set to wreak burning havoc in the celebrity epicenter, causing the famous strip, home to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the TLC Chinese Theatre and the Hollywood Bowl, to be evacuated.]
I think there’s my answer. The famous Chinese Theatre? I was there at least once or twice.
I’m betting it was a homeless person trying to keep warm in the woods.
But yea I could see one of the immigrants doing it. Probably they too were homeless in the woods or just butt heads.
After the evacuation
Burn it down
Burn it to the ground
Burn the ground
The Lord is the ultimate iconoclaster.
It sounds like his safe was in the middle of a huge fire after the floors collapsed onto it, that scenario should have been obvious to him.
