Franklin Fire puts Pepperdine students on alert as wildfire charges past campus

A dangerous situation is unfolding in Southern California. At least 20,000 Los Angeles County residents are under evacuation orders due to a fast-moving and dangerous wildfire fueled by strong Santa Ana winds. Flames from the Franklin Fire have crossed the Pacific Coast Highway and are threatening structures. At one point Tuesday morning, students at Pepperdine University had to take shelter as the fire charged past the university. Henry Adams, a junior journalism student at Pepperdine University, joins FOX Weather to provide an update on the situation on campus.
