LOS ANGELES (KTLA) Smoke billowed from a brush fire burning in the Hollywood Hills Tuesday evening.

The fire was first reported around 6:40 p.m. on the 2100 block of Sunset Plaza Drive, according to the Pulse Point app and was reportedly sparked by a car that was on fire.

Multiple units were dispatched to battle the blaze, which was surrounded on nearly all sides by luxury homes.

Video from an ALERT California camera located atop Bel Air Ridge near Beverly Glen Park captured large plumes of black smoke billowing from the fire scene.

According to updates on Watch Duty, the fire was estimated to be about 1 quarter-acre, burning uphill in medium to heavy fuels toward homes. Despite the close proximity to homes, no evacuations were issued.

Forward progress on the fire was stopped by 7 p.m., but structure defense was taking place with resources on the ground. It’s unclear how the vehicle fire started.

“Helicopters will continue water drops between homes to cool hotspots, while hand crews begin working toward 100% containment on the very steep terrain,” LAFD said.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation and no injuries were reported.

Earlier this year, during historic firestorms in January, the Hollywood Hills was the site of the Sunset Fire, which caused mass evacuations and power outages.
