Firefighters stopped the forward progress of a fast-moving wind-driven brush fire in Riverside County Monday night.
Preliminary information suggests the Chambers Fire, first reported around 6 p.m. in the area of Chambers and Gilbert streets in Hemet, was burning in light brush, according to the wildfire tracking website Watch Duty .
Cal Fire crews responding to the blaze reportedly requested an additional three fire engines for a total of five and one water tender.
