California Line fire rages out of control across 21k acres as National Guard comes to aid in evacuations

Southern California’s Line Fire has consumed more than 21,000 acres on Monday, forcing new evacuations and the deployment of the National Guard.
The explosive blaze has forced thousands from their homes, with new orders in the communities of Angeles Oaks, Seven Oaks and Running Springs. Several school districts canceled Monday classes as a result of the blaze - which is less than 5 percent contained.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said Monday that Governor Gavin Newsom had activated the state’s National Guard to assist with security in evacuated communities. On Sunday, Newsom proclaimed a state of emergency for San Bernardino County.
This will allow for the county and municipal law enforcement agencies to be used for active mandatory evacuations if that becomes necessary,” the department said in a statement.
The wildfire was not showing any signs of stopping by mid-Monday afternoon, although firefighters had made some progress by the early morning. The fire is 3 percent contained.
