The Clay Fire was first reported near Clay Street and Van Buren Boulevard at around 4:45 p.m. and was quickly upgraded to a Third Alarm fire by Riverside County Fire Department crews arriving on scene.

Just after 5:30 p.m., an evacuation warning was issued for residents living north of Jurupa Avenue, south of Pedley Road, east of Crest Avenue and west of Van Buren Boulevard in zone RIV-0182-B. It has since been lifted.

It’s unclear what sparked the flames, but with a helicopter overhead, Riverside Fire and Riverside County Fire Department crews could be seen cutting vegetation in the area while a bulldozer drove over previously burnt ground.

By 7:45 p.m., crews reported that they had about 50% containment on the fire.
