More than 1,000 firefighters battling largest fire in Los Angeles history

(CNN)California Gov. Jerry Brown issued a state of emergency for Los Angeles County on Sunday due to the ongoing La Tuna brush fire near Burbank.

Since the fire started Friday, it has burned more than 5,895 acres, forced residents to evacuate from their homes, shut down an interstate and sent massive plumes of smoke into the air.
Brown's declaration will allow state personnel and equipment to be used in fighting the fires, at the direction of the California Office of Emergency Services.

But there were signs Sunday night that emergency personnel were beginning to drive back the blaze.

The Los Angeles Fire Department said in a statement 6.30 p.m. local time (9:30 p.m. ET) that the fire was 25% contained. All mandatory and voluntary evacuations had been formally lifted, it said, and a section of interstate closed due to fire and smoke had reopened. Four firefighters had non-life-threatening injuries.

More than 1,000 firefighters from the immediate region and throughout California are battling the fire, which has destroyed three homes and damaged one other, Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Ralph Terrazas said during a press conference Sunday. Burbank is in Los Angeles County.
There are 206 fire engines and nine helicopters dedicated to fighting the fire, Terrazas said.

Strong winds
The fire started Friday and tore through the La Tuna Canyon Park area of the Verdugo Mountains, the Los Angeles Fire Department said.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti signed a declaration of local emergency on Saturday that instructed all city agencies to "take all necessary steps to protect life and property in the area" affected by what is now the largest fire the city has ever seen.

"The La Tuna Canyon Fire is an emergency that requires all available resources to protect our residents and keep our homes and other structures out of harm's way," Garcetti said in a statement.
Garcetti said Saturday that 300 homes in Burbank and 180 homes in Los Angeles were under evacuation orders.
There were four reports of injuries: two people suffered dehydration and two had minor burns.

"We do not have this fire contained," Garcetti said, but officials have "identified ways we can bring this fire to rest" in coming days.
Rain on Sunday was a mixed blessing, Terraza said, as it brought much needed moisture, but also strong winds that have blown the fire around.
