The Santa Clara County Fire Department on July 26 responded to a fire covering about one acre in unincorporated Los Gatos in the Lexington Hills area.
Firefighters responded to reports of smoke around Aldercroft Heights and Bridge road sat 5:20 p.m., County Fire officials said on social media, adding that the vegetation fire had a “slow to moderate rate of spread.” Officials issued evacuation warnings “out of an abundance of caution,” but have since lifted the warnings.
“Crews will remain on scene as they work on containment and are anticipated to be onsite for extended mop-up,” County Fire said.
Officials closed Bridge Road to traffic, and there were no reports of injuries.
The incident took place in an area that has seen at least one other fire recently. Matt Mokhtarian of County Fire said firefighters responded to a blaze July 15 at around 4:30 a.m. The .fire was about 30 feet by 100 feet, or about one-eighth of an acre, and burned at a slow rate of spread.
