Evacuation orders in Arizona have been lifted for some residents of northeast Scottsdale, days after they were forced from their homes by a wildfire, authorities said Sunday. About 60 homes were evacuated Friday. No injuries have been reported and no structures have been damaged. Authorities said the cause of the fire remains under investigation. It began about five miles outside northern Scottsdale on the edge of the Tonto National Forest.
Maricopa County Department of Emergency Management officials said evacuations were lowered from “Go” to “Set” status Saturday evening for some displaced residents preparing to return home. Scottsdale officials have notified homeowners that the north part of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, including all trails, will be closed until further notice. They called that a precautionary move and said there was no immediate threat to the preserve.
