A brush fire above Kalihi Valley Homes on Sunday burned about 15 acres of land but did not reach residences, according to Honolulu firefighters.

No injuries were reported and no evacuations ordered, said Homolulu Fire Department Capt. Scot Seguirant.

The blaze, first reported around noon, was 95% contained by 8 p.m., he said.

“It did get kind of close to the homes, but that part is out. What’s left burning is at the top of the ridge,” Seguirant said Sunday evening.

The steep terrain surrounding the area presented a challenge to firefighters on the ground and prompted fire officials to call in water drops via the Fire Department’s Air 1 helicopter, Seguirant said.

Fourteen HFD units with 46 personnel responded to the fire. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
