Nine Structures Destroyed by Wildfire in Sacramento

SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA — July 9, 2018

No less than 9 structures have been destroyed in Sacramento County, California by ongoing wildfire, which has now consumed 88,375 acres.

The situation is very difficult, since firefighters are just now "being able to get into areas that probably weren't safe" before, and can now assess the damage, so the number of houses burnt by fire might increase.

Mandatory evacuations remain in effect in Sacramento county as one of the strongest wildfires in recent years is still marching through California.
