An early morning vegetation fire near the Jet Propulsion Laboratory was quickly knocked down on Friday, according to Pasadena Fire Department spokesperson Lisa Derderian, who said a preliminary report indicated  the blaze “was from homeless encampment not fireworks.”

The fire, which was knocked down around 2:20 a.m., was a quarter-acre brush fire located in Devil’s Gate Reservoir. 

The Pasadena Fire Department worked in conjunction with the Los Angeles County Fire Department to quickly extinguish the slow-moving fire in the difficult-to-access terrain,  Derderian said.

The fire was successfully contained with no structures threatened. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
