MOUNT BALDY (AP) ― Firefighters Wednesday worked to contain a fire that has so far burned about 300 acres in the Angeles National Forest near Mount Baldy.

Several recreation residences were evacuated in the Bear Canyon area, but no buildings had been lost and no injuries were reported, officials said.
