Spot Fires Burn on SR-94

Several small spot fires broke out on the side of State Route 94 Tuesday in the Grant Hill area, officials said.

The fires began just before 10:40 a.m. on the roadside off eastbound SR-94 between 28th Street and Interstate 15. The San Diego Fire-Rescue Department (SDFD) said no homes were threatened.

The fires impacted traffic and a SigAlert was issued for eastbound SR-94 after officials shut down two lanes. The lanes had reopened by noon, officials said.

It was about 75 degrees in Grant Hill at the time of the fires. The cause is under investigation.

About an hour earlier, firefighters battled multiple other brush fires off State Route 67 in Lakeside.
