Acton

Old Acton, who is one of our county magnates, had his house broken into last Monday. No great damage done, but the fellows are still at large.

Fire crews battled two brush fires in northern Los Angeles County on Thursday — the King fire, which ignited near Pyramid Lake in the early morning, and the Hawk fire, which erupted in Acton around 3 p.m., threatening structures and prompting evacuation orders.
