The slow-moving, terrain-driven grass fire was first reported just before 4 p.m. in the area of Ernest E. Debs Regional Park, according to LAFD spokeswoman Amy Bastman.

Ground crews and helicopters responded in the area of Monterey Road and Via Marisol in Montecito Heights, Bastman said.

Firefighters were “placed ahead” of the blaze due to wind, but no homes were threatened and no structures were evacuated, Bastman said. Some 120 firefighters responded, knocking down the fire in an hour and 54 minutes.

At one point, aerial video from Sky5 showed firefighters focused on an area near a hexagonal pavilion in the northern portion of the hilly, brush-filled 282-acre city park.

At least three water-dropping helicopters worked the blaze, aerial video from Sky5 showed. City and county firefighters responded.

No injuries were reported.

Winds of up to 25 mph were forecast for the area on Wednesday, and gusts of up to 40 mph that could continue into Thursday morning, according to the National Weather Service. A wind advisory is in effect.
