Flames Force Evacuations; Man Arrested
By Hugo Martín and Sandra Murillo, Times Staff Writers

A series of wildfires in Southern California spread overnight, forcing thousands to evacuate their homes and leading to an arrest of a man suspected of igniting one of the blazes.

As many as 4,000 homes had been evacuated since midnight between Corona and Lake Elsinore, according to fire officials. The "El Cerrito" blaze rapidly spread in Temescal Canyon near Interstate 15 since it was sparked early Monday afternoon and, according to wire reports, is estimated to only be 10% contained.

In Riverside County, nearly 4,000 acres southeast of Temecula were charred in the "Eagle fire", which damaged or destroyed an unknown number of structures last night, said Rick Griggs, an engineer for the California Department of Forestry.
