Editor's Note: This story has been updated to correct the neighborhood where the fire broke out. SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — San Diego fire crews worked to stop yet another vegetation fire that erupted in Grantville Thursday morning. The fire was first reported around 9:12 a.m. in the area of 5960 Fairmont Avenue — east of the Interstate 15, near the area's Home Depot. Active flames appeared to have stamped out when SkyFOX/KUSI in the Sky flew over the scene around 9:45 a.m. According to San Diego Fire-Rescue, a total of 42 personnel were dispatched to the fire, including three helicopters and two brush rigs. This was the second brush fire to spark along the Interstate 8 corridor in a matter of days. The first burned through a hillside adjacent to the Fashion Valley Mall, forcing evacuations in southern Linda Vista as it threatened a number of homes. This is a developing story.
