150 people are TRAPPED in Sierra National Forrest and cannot evacuate a rapidly growing Creek wildfire in California and have been told to shelter in place - even if that means jumping into WATER
  • Some 150 people were trapped by a wildfire in Sierra National Forrest on Saturday, officials said
  • Officials said escape routes from Mammoth Pool Reservoir were blocked and they may have to jump in water
  • At least 10 injuries were reported among parkgoers trapped by raging flames of the Creek Fire
  • National Guard helicopters were called in to evacuate terrified families from the reservoir
  • Brutal heat wave has led to multiple wildfires tearing through the national forest
