In response to the threatening Getty Fire, students from Mount Saint Mary's University were forced to evacuate as the blaze approached their campus. The Getty Fire, which started on Monday morning near the Getty Center, has rapidly expanded, causing widespread destruction and prompting mandatory evacuations for areas in its path. As the fire drew nearer to the university campus, students were urged to leave for their safety.
Classes at Mount Saint Mary's University were canceled and students were advised to leave the campus immediately.
The university's administration sent out notifications via emails and text messages, informing students about the evacuation orders. In addition, the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) was deployed on campus to provide guidance and ensure everyone's safe departure.
The Getty Fire has been fueled by high winds, reaching speeds of up to 70 miles per hour, which have contributed to the rapid spread of the flames. This has made it extremely challenging for firefighters to gain control over the fire and protect the affected areas.
Firefighters from various departments have been actively battling the fire, working round the clock to contain the inferno.
As the Getty Fire burned closer to the university campus, firefighters used helicopters to drop massive amounts of water on the flames in an attempt to slow down the fire's progression. Meanwhile, ground crews worked diligently to construct containment lines and prevent the fire from encroaching further onto the campus.
