Many residents fled the Altadena and Pasadena area due to the blaze that has consumed more than 10,000 acres with zero containment, according to Lisa Derderian, a city of Pasadena’s information officer. More than 800 people were at the evacuation center, Red Cross volunteers said Wednesday morning.

The 10,000-acre Eaton Fire swept through communities in Pasadena Wednesday morning after torching an unknown number of homes in neighboring Altadena in the San Gabriel Valley. KTLA 5 News reporter Chip Yost was on live television as homes on Glen Avenue near Montana Street went up in flames.
