A brush fire near the Angeles National Forest created a fire tornado that sucked up nearby brush and ripped through a hillside on Wednesday evening.
The Lake Fire quickly burned through 10,000 acres after being spotted on Wednesday afternoon. The blaze was fueled by an excess of brush in a region of California that has not burned since 1968, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
