Another brush fire erupted in Los Angeles County Wednesday morning as firefighters were already battling two massive blazes raging in Pacific Palisades and Altadena.
The Woodley Fire started at 6:15 a.m. on North Woodley Avenue in the Sepulveda Basin and quickly grew to 75 acres.
The blaze was being driven south by strong winds and threatened to cross Burbank Boulevard, a post on the California fire incident website stated.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.

The Eaton Fire erupted Tuesday evening near Altadena and has burned more than 2,000 acres.
