    This wildfire evacuation alert accidentally went out to everyone in LA County

    After two days of dealing with wildfires that have burned thousands of acres, residents across Los Angeles County received a wildfire evacuation alert on Thursday afternoon that was a mistake. Shortly after, officials sent a follow-up alert saying that the notice was intended only for people near the Kenneth Fire in Woodland Hills.

    Los Angeles County shared a message on X explaining what happened. “An evacuation order for residents near the Kenneth Fire currently burning in West Hills was mistakenly issued Countywide,” according to the post. “This alert was only intended for residents of Calabasas and Agoura Hills.”

    CBS Los Angeles quoted Sup. Janice Hahn saying, “I have been informed the evacuation warning that many of us just received on our phones was mistakenly issued countywide due to a technical error.”  

    Many wildfires are burning in the LA area, and there have been at least six deaths confirmed by officials, CNN reports.
