Lake Fire burns 478 acres in Southern California: See map
Crews work overnight to contain California wildfire
A wildfire broke out in San Bernardino County, California, on Saturday, June 28, spreading rapidly and leading to evacuations in the area. The Lake Fire had burned 478 acres with no containment by Saturday night.
LOS ANGELES – Firefighters were able to stall the Lake Fire burning near Victorville, California, though the blaze continues to burn.
The blaze sparked just before 4 p.m. PT June 28, according to Cal Fire, and reached 478 acres burned around midnight. Cal Fire said they were able to achieve 10% containment in an update the morning of June 29.
“Fire behavior significantly decreased overnight allowing for ground and air resources to gain some containment,” Cal Fire said. “The fire has remained in its current footprint and today’s resources will continue to mop up and strengthen containment lines, while active working to defend structures.”
The department said that the weather would turn unfavorable over the next two days, predicting low humidity and winds gusting up to 25 mph Sunday afternoon and stronger gusts June 30.
Fire closes state recreation area, prompts evacuation orders
Evacuation orders were issued for residents south of Highway 138 between Interstate 15 and Highway 173. Warnings also covered north of Highway 138 and 173 from Summit Valley Road to Arrowhead Lake Road.
The fire also caused the Silverwood State Recreation Area to close through at least Sunday.
“The park may reopen Monday, June 30 after re-evaluation,” representatives said in a written statement.
Escorts were planned for park visitors and campers to renter the park to retrieve belongings after 9 a.m. Sunday.

Rep. Kevin Kiley announces run in California’s redrawn 6th Congressional District
Congressman Kevin Kiley has announced his plan to run in California’s newly redrawn 6th district.
In a statement on Monday, Rep. Kiley revealed he had considered running in the 5th District – which could have set up a possible showdown between two current Republican officeholders.
“It’s true that I was fully prepared to run in the new 5th, having tested the waters and with polls showing a favorable outlook in a “safe” district. But doing what’s easy and what’s right are often not the same,” Kiley stated.
Kiley currently represents California’s 3rd district, which originally comprised counties making up much of the back spine of the state.
As of the Prop. 50 redistricting push, the 3rd district was redrawn for the 2026 midterm election to lean toward the Democratic Party – with those eastern spine of California counties lopped off and more of Sacramento County, including Rancho Cordova, added.
California’s new 6th district is now comprised of Rocklin, Roseville, Citrus Heights, much of North and East Sacramento, and the city of West Sacramento. Democratic Rep. Ami Bera currently represents the district, but will be running for the new 3rd district in 2026.
Other declared candidates for the 6th district include Democrats Lauren Babb Thomlinson, Thien Ho, Richard Pan, Kindra Pring, Tyler Vandenberg, and Republicans Christine Bish, Craig DeLuz, and Raymond Riehle.
Kiley was first elected to the House in 2022 and was reelected in 2024.
