Vegetation Fire In Pleasanton Sparked By Landscaper

PLEASANTON, CA — A small vegetation fire that broke out in the 7200 block of Johnson Drive in Pleasanton Tuesday was quickly doused by the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department. The blaze broke out around 3:30 p.m. but crews had it under control within minutes.

The fire was started by a landscaper conducting weed abatement, according to LPFD's deputy chief of operations Aaron Lacey. There were no structures threatened and the fire was contained within a vacant lot that used to be the Clorox property, Lacey said.

No injuries occurred or were reported at scene.

The area is populated with commercial buildings and nearby housing.
