Massive fire at a San Diego auto wrecking lot destroys more than 200 cars
One home was also burned
SAN DIEGO (KYMA, KECY) - A fire that broke out at an auto wrecking yard in San Diego burned more than 200 cars and caused some residences to be evacuated.
One home was also damaged by the blaze.
San Diego Fire Department (SDFD) called it the "Cactus Fire."
The blaze is no longer burning, and no injuries were reported.
The SDFD also confirmed 20 people were evacuated, as crews protected nearby structures. There were a few spot fires that caught brush on fire, but those were put out.
An SDFD helicopter had to be used to make water drops onto the yard because the fire was so difficult to put out, according to fire officials.
About 130 personnel worked on the blaze.
