Crews battle small fire in Hollywood Hills

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A small brush fire broke out in the Hollywood Hills area of Los Angeles, sending plumes of smoke that could be seen for several miles.

The Los Angeles Fire Department said firefighters on the air and on the ground were battling the roughly 3-acre fire Saturday afternoon.

Officials said the fire was burning at a slow rate with no wind.

They said while the fire was visible from Universal Studios and Warner Bros. Studios, it was moving away from structures and toward Griffith Park.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
