A mandatory evacuation order has been issued in the Hollywood Hills following the spread of the wildfires raging across Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) said there was an “immediate threat to life” in the area and that it was being legally closed to the public.
At least five fires are currently active across Los Angeles, with five people confirmed to have been killed.
More than 130,000 people have already had to evacuate, and the homes of a number of celebrities – including Paris Hilton and Billy Crystal – have been destroyed.
