Fight Foothills Blaze Threatens Pasadena Glen Homes
The Foothills fire started Monday near Bailey and Little Santa Anita canyons, threatening about 700 homes at its peak. Gusty winds fanned flames that spared most residences after brush clearance, with two hay sheds lost and several areas, including Hastings Estates, briefly at risk. Fire crews from multiple agencies, plus Red Cross and Salvation Army, battled toward Sierra Madre, as one firefighter suffered serious burns and local students were sent home for safety.
