New Fire Ignites in California Near LA's Getty Museum VOA News Firefighters in California battled a new blaze Monday that broke out near the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, forcing thousands of people to evacuate. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said the fire has grown to 200 hectares since it ignited before dawn on Monday and has burned down at least five homes. The area is where some of the city's most expensive homes are located. Basketball star LeBron James, who lives in the area, said he evacuated with his family, but had difficulties finding a nearby hotel with vacancies. "Finally found a place to accommodate us!" the Los Angeles Lakers player wrote on Twitter. "Crazy night man!"
