VIDEO: A human-caused wildfire has led to overnight evacuation of numerous homes in an unincorporated area northeast of Scottsdale. Now, more residents are being advised to prepare for possible evacuation.
The Boulder View Fire has burned 3,200 acres, with zero percent containment.
The fire is burning near the Boulder Heights community, close to Lone Mountain Parkway and Cave Creek Road, located east of Desert Mountain Golf Club.
