Description
The fire is burning off I-84 near milepost 87, on the east side of The Dalles. Some residents are being evacuated. At least one home has caught fire.
The evacuation area includes the Oregon Veterans' Home, a residential center for disabled veterans. However, WCSO later clarified that residents of the center are "sheltering in place" instead of evacuating.
