April 12, 2013 (La Mesa) -- Multilple small brush fires have broken out on I-8 in La Mesa,  likely caused by a vehicle pulled over under the Grossmont bridge.  Other fires are reported at the Spring Street exit.  There is also fire reported on westbound 8 at Main Street in El Cajon. 

Sources inform ECM that the fires are being knocked down quickly but smoke is heavy so expect lane closures in this area.
