Southern California Edison has told state utility regulators that unspecified electrical “circuit activity” happened at about the time that a wildfire sparked near the coastal city of Laguna Niguel.
The Coastal Fire was reported Wednesday afternoon in a canyon between Laguna Niguel and the neighboring city of Laguna Beach, Orange County Fire Authority Assistant Chief T.J. McGovern told reporters. SoCal Edison made the report about the circuit activity Wednesday evening.
