 A power company in Southern California said on Friday that it had re-energized a power line just minutes before a wildfire ignited nearby on a hilltop northwest of Los Angeles.

Southern California Edison (SCE) had cut off power to hundreds of thousands of customers last week in an effort to prevent wildfires as strong winds threatened to down power lines, NPR reported.
