Description
Firefighters continued working Tuesday to subdue a wildfire that has spread over about 1,000 open acres in the rural southeastern reaches of San Diego County, threatening back-country neighborhoods and cultural relics while forcing hundreds of people from their homes.
The blaze erupted at about 3:30 p.m. Monday when a car overturned and caught fire on Interstate 8 near McCain Valley Road in Boulevard, north of Jacumba Hot Springs, according to Cal Fire.
The flames spread into rugged, rocky, brush-covered terrain on the north side of the freeway, moving toward nearby De Anza Springs Resort, said Mike Cornette, a fire captain with the state agency.
