The multiple wildfires burning in Los Angeles County are too large for one fire department to battle alone. Fire agencies from around the state and Bay Area are sending help.

Major fires have killed five people, ravaged communities from the Pacific Coast to Pasadena, and sent thousands of people frantically fleeing their homes.

Firefighters are still trying to extinguish several wildfires burning parts of Southern California. At least five people were killed by the fires and tens of thousands of people have had to leave nearly everything behind during evacuations.
