LOS ANGELES (AP) — Officials say the two biggest wildfires ravaging the Los Angeles area this week have burned at least 10,000 homes, buildings and other structures. Officials urged more people to heed evacuation orders Thursday after a new blaze ignited. The fast-moving Kenneth Fire started in the late afternoon in the San Fernando Valley near the West Hills neighborhood and moved into Ventura County. Only hours earlier, officials expressed encouragement after firefighters aided by calmer winds saw the first signs of successfully beating back the fires. At least 10 people have died.
