Bobcat Fire causing evacuations in the Antelope Valley

The Bobcat Fire continues to grow in the Antelope Valley, where strong winds are making it difficult for firefighters to save every home.

LOS ANGELES - Strong winds pushed the Bobcat Fire flames into neighborhoods of the Antelope Valley foothills.

It’s the Northwest flank of the stubborn blaze, which had firefighters busy protecting Mt Wilson and now, fighting to save residential areas near Pearblossom, Little Rock, Valyermo, Juniper Hills and beyond.

They have saved some homes, but not all.

FOX 11 spoke to residents of both.
