Firefighters battling the Palisades Fire reported poor water pressure in hydrants, and a nearby reservoir was closed as the fire scorched thousands of acres. The state's now trying to find out why.

Off-duty LAFD firefighter Connor Lees is presumed lost at sea after a more than two-day search.

Firefighters said the fire has also damaged one of the other buildings in the strip mall.
