exploded this morning. we're sitting short of 93 acres. it was so frenetic that at one point they told certain homes, certain neighborhoods you have to evacuate. then cal fire in san jose fire. they called for aerial support so they find it from the ground and from the air. the good news is we're not hearing any structures damaged. no one hurt and evacuation orders have been lifted. but 2 neighborhoods still have evacuation warnings. got a chance to talk to some people during that just. >> madness of it here's their res onse to what unfolded. >> looks back. start head go all the way through field. i'm scared because like how about for some of that? that we have more trees every color. treason. >> the fire jump the road and just, you know. things that just, you know. things that have happened that i happen because it is for trees, kind of sparsely

populated on the hill. so i we're pretty given a benefit. >> okay. so keep in mind, 75% contained does not mean out. just think of it as like a rope being something. so it's 75% wrote, but not out. that will take several more days if everything goes well, as far as the cause of the fire that's still under investigation. james starry. thank you very much. well, >> the people season passes do the exact same thing. >> people talking about their fears and concerns with what's going on with ice. and these protesters demonstrated outside the 9th circuit court of appeals in san francisco yesterday afternoon. they want ice, the national guard and the marines to get out of los angeles. and it's now up to that three-judge panel to decide if president trump overstepped his role in deploying the national guard

to la during those ice protests. an appeals court heard yesterday from attorneys from the trump administration and from governor newsom's office. >> and kron four's dan kerman brings us up to date. >> what does it mean for the president to be unable with regular forces to execute the laws for a little over an hour, 3 judge panel with the 9th circuit court of appeals peppered attorneys for governor newsome and president trump with questions as the 2 attorneys argued whether or not the president has the legal authority to deploy the national guard to the streets of los angeles. know there is no rule for their court. >> to to play and reviewing that decision. >> the attorney for the trump administration argued the judicial branch has no legal authority to review such a decision by the president. and furthermore, his decision to deploy the guard does meet statutory requirements. >> the guard is essential to continuing to safely enforce immigration laws and protecting federal buildings in los angeles. and just mention, court is essential with this injunction, the state otherwise lives and

property will get best or at least needs to some consideration. >> of whether there are more modest measures that all in for the national guard before taking that great, extraordinary step. >> the attorney for the governor argued despite protests, ice is able to carry out its duties meeting. the president doesn't meet the requirements for deploying the national guard every day that this order remains in effect. it is causing harm. >> for our nation's broader democratic tradition of separation of the military, from civilian affairs. >> and that is not just a problem for the 60 day presumptive deployment here. >> the question for this court will be do they agree with a lower court decision that the president didn't have the right to deploy the guard or will they side with the trump administration? it's not clear where the panel's going to go. >> but the 2. trump appointed judges seem to be inclined to not support what the district court judge had ordered, which

would mean they would rule in favor of trump's order. rory little is a constitutional law professor at uc law. san francisco. >> simply affirming the trump ordered this point is going to suggest that it's not going to be so rare and that the president can call out the national guard almost whenever he wants. that's a very dangerous position. and one would hope that the 9th circuit won't say that whatever the ruling is, it will likely be appealed to the u.s. supreme court. in the meantime, the california national guard remains on the ground. >> in los angeles, dan kerman kron. 4 news. meantime, president trump has ordered ice to increase. >> the daily number of arrests they made to 3,000 per day and meet that goal. immigration raids will be resuming. they stay at hotels, restaurants and farms if they ever stop. the trump administration may be briefly paused the roundups because the industry had voiced some concerns about losing reliable employees.
