There are currently 179,783 Los Angeles residents still under evacuation orders amid the wildfires that continue to rage in the Los Angeles area, LA County Sheriff Robert Luna said on Thursday during a news conference. “That’s nearly 180,000 people in Los Angeles County that are currently under evacuation orders with another close to 200,000 residents that are under evacuation warnings,” Luna said. “I cannot emphasize enough that I urge residents that are asked to evacuate to follow our warnings,” he added. Earlier, the evacuation orders in Hollywood Hills were lifted after progress in controlling the fire in the area. Although officials confirmed at least five people died in the fires, the LA county sheriff stated he wants to be “more confident” before confirming the exact number. However, he noted that he believes the death toll is “going to rise.”
