Crews with the Los Angeles Fire Department are battling flames on the embankment of the northbound 2 Freeway in Eagle Rock, as well as a fire-engulfed home.
The blaze was originally reported by LAFD as 1 acre of brush burning uphill toward Palmer Drive, with homes threatened.
By 2:50 p.m., aerial footage showed a home completely engulfed by fire.
"Crews are coordinating simultaneous structure defense and brush fire suppression," LAFD said. Los Angeles Park Rangers are assisting.
