CALABASAS, Calif. (KABC) -- Crews were responding to a raging 200-acre brush fire in Calabasas that threatened several homes and buildings on Saturday.

The Los Angeles County Fire Department responded to the fire at about 4:10 pM

Capt. Keith Mora stated the initial call was for a car crash into a power pole with possible lines down. Firefighters in the field reported seeing power lines down also.

According to Mora, there were three start points of the fire, and officials believed all three may have been caused by downed power lines.

Sounds like she and her husband may have been in the group evacuated.

Scary. Very scary.
