Orange County firefighters are battling a 250-acre blaze in the hills along the 91 Freeway on the far eastern edge of Anaheim on Monday afternoon.
Anaheim Fire & Rescue responded to the blaze shortly before 1:30 p.m. in the Coal Canyon area, and the Orange County Fire Authority was assisting. By 2 p.m., 25 to 30 acres had burned in what was being called the Canyon Fire.
The blaze crossed Pipeline Road into Chino Hills State Park, and traffic on the eastbound 91 Freeway was being affected, the Anaheim department tweeted. One lane was blocked and traffic was back up, according to Caltrans.
