A significant wildfire, initially named the Border 2 Fire, broke out on Thursday, in the Otay Mountains, southeast of San Diego, near the U.S.-Mexico border.
The fire has quickly spread through the rugged landscape, driven by dry conditions and strong winds. As of now, it has scorched 566 acres and remains 0% contained, according to the San Diego County Fire Authority.
