A 46-acre brush fire that forced three families out of their homes Sunday afternoon has been 100 percent contained, Cal Fire officials said.
The brush fire broke out around noon Sunday on Black Canyon Road near the Mesa Grande Reservation, near Cleveland National Forest.
Officials initially reported the fire at 75 acres, but a better mapping of the area helped them revise the total acreage to 46 acres.
Bob Grande drove out to make sure his property was safe.
"They did a great job out here,” he told NBC 7. “It could have been a disaster out there.”
Fire crews kept four engines assigned to the fire overnight.
Monday afternoon, they reported it was entirely contained.
