Emigrant Fire Nearing Containment

Firefighters are hoping for full containment today of one of four major fires burning in Northern
California.

The wildfire about 50 miles north of Susanville forced the closure of one lane of Interstate 80 and caused a “horrendous mess.´´ Officials
say they have it 90% contained and expect full containment by six this evening.
