Evacuations soar in the San Fernando Valley, Brentwood as Palisades fire extends to Day 5
On Thursday, Jan. 9, a Super Scooper firefighting plane was grounded after it collided with a drone illegally flying over the Palisades fire area. The aircraft, which can drop 1,600 gallons of water at a time and replenish its supply in five minutes, will likely be out of use for the remainder of the Palisades fire.
