Elysian Park fire knocked down with help of LAFD water drops

With the aid of helicopter water drops, ground crews with Los Angeles Fire Department working with park rangers quickly put out a small vegetation fire Wednesday on a remote hillside trail in the Elysian Park area of Los Angeles.

The fire broke out around 9:13 a.m. near the southbound Golden State (5) Freeway and Stadium Way, and was knocked down at 9:47 a.m.

No injuries were reported and there was no threat to structures.

Though there was a homeless encampment nearby, the specific cause of the fire has yet to be determined, according to the LAFD.
