Los Angeles firefighters were responding Monday evening to Hollywood Hills homes at the entrance to Laurel Canyon after debris flow apparently came downhill toward the residences.

Aerial video from Sky5 showed fire engines responding to homes on Laurel View Drive, which sits above Laurel Canyon Boulevard at Hollywood Boulevard. Firefighters were shining flashlights on the hillside that appeared to show a slide down toward homes below.
Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Erik Scott said debris flow was affecting three homes, and no injuries were reported. LAFD was called to the scene at 5:30 p.m.
The response comes nearly three weeks after the foundation of an aged home fell down a rain-soaked hillside onto Laurel Canyon Boulevard below.
The roadway, a crucial connector between West Hollywood and the San Fernando Valley, was closed for several days. That incident occurred only about a half-mile from Monday’s debris flow.
