Friday morning firefighters from San Diego Fire Rescue made quick work of knocking down a fire in the city’s San Carlos neighborhood. Working with the department’s Helicopter 2, a Bell 412EP, they stopped the spread at about two acres.
San Diego Police officers briefly informed residents on southbound Navajo Road, between Park Ridge Boulevard and Margerum Avenue, to evacuate, but that was lifted after about half an hour.
Thanks go out to Ryan Grothe for these photos.


San Diego Channel 8 shot aerial video of the fire. You can see the helicopter dropping water at the beginning and again at 3:20.
