Days after a planned ski trip, one family realized they might be staying longer.
“We have that mindset, if things are going bad somewhere,” Brent Pascua, a fire captain with CAL FIRE San Diego said, “we’re probably going to be sent to help out and we’re going to figure out how we can make it better.”“That way we could get to the people, get to their driveways, get them food and water, help them to evacuate if need be,” Pascua said.He added that they have also been uncovering buried gas lines and fire hydrants.
“They’re going to stay up there to be prepared for anything and they’re not leaving until the job’s done,” Pascua said. He added it is not clear how long they will be out of the county for, but he anticipates it is at least another week. According to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, as of Saturday night, 150 people asked to be rescued from their neighborhoods.UPDATE: More information on today's response.
