California Mosquito Fire surges, becomes largest in state this year
A wildfire that’s burned through more than 63,000 acres in Northern California became the largest in the state this year as more than 3,000 emergency personnel combat the blaze.
The Mosquito Fire is burning up the Tahoe and Eldorado national forests in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, eating up dry forestland fueled by southwest winds.
The inferno has also threatened more than 9,000 nearby structures in El Dorado and Placer counties, prompting the evacuation of more than 11,000 people.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) declared an emergency for the two counties, located in the greater Sacramento metropolitan area.
The Placer County Sheriff's Office reduced the blaze’s containment to 20% Wednesday, down from 25% the previous day. Thousands have been ordered or warned to evacuate as the fire burned east of Foresthill, California.
One firefighter has been injured with non-life-threatening injuries, according to Cal Fire information officer Scott McLean.
