6,000 evacuated as fast-moving wildfire rips through Santa Barbara County

A fast-moving brush fire continued to consume hillsides in Santa Barbara County, Calif., blackening more than 1,200 acres and threatening 50 structures.

The “White Fire” broke out Monday in Los Padres National Forest near the White Rock Camp Area in Red Rock Canyon, forcing the authorities evacuate 50 families from nearby homes, and about 6,000 campgoers from the Paradise Road area.

No injuries were reported, as of posting, and the fire was only 5 percent contained. The cause of the fire is being investigated.
