Fifteen homes destroyed by Buckweed fire

Saugus:

Thirty-two structures were lost in the Buckweed fire north of Saugus, including 15 homes, said Fire Inspector Frank Garrido of the Los Angeles County Fire Department.

"There were 38 miles of fire lines to contain, and we have 80% containment," he said. All roads were opened up to residents, except for the northern end of Bouquet Canyon Road, he said.

Four injuries were reported, minor ones for two civilians and one firefighter, and more serious ones for another civilian, he said.
