00:00There are and we've received reports about those and we've received reports
00:04that at least 30,000 people have been evacuated but do you think it's likely
00:07that some people could be trapped in areas that simply aren't accessible?
00:13Well the evacuation started yesterday late morning in the early
00:18afternoon so most of the Palisades area has been fully evacuated. Our law
00:25enforcement partners LAPD helped manage that physical evacuation of getting into
00:31all the areas. We received a lot of 911 calls from individuals who weren't able
00:36to get out of their home. A lot of times it's a mobility issue or they need help
00:39so one by one we had resources sent up to assist those people. It of course is
00:47entirely possible that there are still people remaining in isolated areas but
00:52we don't currently have reports of that.
