The Line Fire also threatens thousands of homes, businesses and other buildings in San Bernardino County, east of Los Angeles.

The wildfire, which started on Thursday, spread rapidly overnight on Saturday, causing California Governor Gavin Newsom to declare a state of emergency.

The blaze on the edge of the San Bernardino National Forest had grown to more than 20,000 acres (32 sq miles) as of early Monday, and was 0% contained.

It is currently the fourth-largest active wildfire in California, after quadrupling in size on Saturday.
