Firefighters quickly extinguished a brush fire that erupted along the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley on Monday. The fire was reported at about 4 p.m. on a hillside next to the northbound lanes of the freeway in Granada Hills.

The small fire started in medium brush above homes and south of the Griffith Observatory on a day of red flag warnings in Los Angeles County, where firefighters are increasing containment of the deadly Eaton Fire and Palisades Fire.
