Southern California brush fires ease

DIAMOND BAR, Calif. (AP) -- -- Brush fires that threatened neighborhoods in the eastern Los Angeles County city of Diamond Bar are being contained and school officials are preparing to dismiss students from a campus in the area.

Pomona Unified School District spokesman Tim McGillivray says students will be dismissed at 3 p.m. Tuesday from Diamond Ranch High School but afterschool activities have been canceled.

McGillivray says school will resume Wednesday on a normal schedule.

The school's 1,600 students were kept safe in a gym as fire swept by the campus.
