CLEARLAKE, Calif. – Several acres were reported burned in a late Monday night fire in Clearlake that occurred near the location of a fire that took place last week.
Just before 11:30 p.m. firefighters responded to the area of Sulphur Bank Road and North Drive in the Clearlake Park area, where callers reported seeing flames and smoke on the hillside.
Firefighters from Lake County Fire Protection District and Cal Fire who arrived on scene a short time later said the fire was burning on top of a ridge, with no structures threatened.
It also was in the area of a fire that had been reported on Friday evening at Sulphur Bank Road and North Drive, as Lake county News has reported.
Radio reports indicated the fire burned between five and 10 acres, with one of its flanks eventually moving into the area of the Friday fire.
A strike team from the nearby Jerusalem fire responded to work on the incident, according to radio reports.
Additional information will be published as it becomes available.
