Law enforcement requested for ABC News10 media on Humbug Road near Keefer Ranch (Humbug Rd is the "307 road"), 5-6 miles west from Hwy89. The news media was impeding fire fighting operations, being hostile to the request for getting out of the way, and you could hear the news guy yelling in the background of radio traffic as he explained the reporter was getting in his face, "no 'you're' the one getting in 'my' face!". News vehicle has since left, "heading on the 307 racing to the 89, provided he doesn't run off the road..."

Just a quick reminder that all chit-chat, questions and discussion belong in the Q&D sub-forums. The Abs and Mods have moved a lot of chit-chat and questions from the IA forums today. Initial Attack and Continuing incident threads are for "command" traffic only.
