Fox's Bill Malusion is on the ground in Brentwood and has the latest. There is a desperate fight to stop the flames. We've seen numerous airdrops, air tankers coming in, dropping their retardant low. The ridge behind me painted pink with fire retardant as firefighters...
rushed to stop the flames. There's also been a ground effort as well. Firefighters digging a line as well as laying a hose on the ground, getting water on the flames.
