The evacuation order mistakenly issued to all residents in Los Angeles County aimed only to warn those near the Kenneth Fire, causing unnecessary panic.
This alert was supposed to be limited to Calabasas and Agoura Hills, highlighting the impact of technical errors during emergencies amid rampant wildfires.
Emergency alerts are crucial for safety, yet this countywide mistake illustrates how miscommunications can heighten anxiety during critical wildfire situations.
LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn acknowledged a technical error in the evacuation notice, prompting a need for improved accuracy in emergency notifications.
