Fire crews push back two Mojave fires threatening Big Bear area
Thousands of firefighters with aircraft battled two lightning fires totaling over 95 square miles near the San Bernardino Mountains. One blaze on the Mojave Desert floor burned 53,000 acres and 45 homes, while the other 8,300 acres threatened about 1,500 homes as volunteers worked to keep the flames from Big Bear Lake. Firefighters described conditions as tough but in good shape, while search teams looked for a missing 57 year old man in Pioneertown.
