Firefighters work through night as Colleen Fire burns through 90 acres

Evacuations have been lifted in San Jose Thursday night after a vegetation fire prompted those orders, fire officials said.

An advisory was issued by Cal Fire at 6:10 p.m. about the Colleen Fire, which was burning off of Colleen Drive. Fire officials said at about 9:15 p.m. that evacuation orders were lifted.

The fire has burned 90 acres and is still only 20 percent contained Thursday night, according to the Cal Fire Twitter account at 10:18 p.m. Firefighters will work through the night and additional crews will join the effort tomorrow, fire officials said.

One person has been arrested on suspicion of setting the fire and possible others, police said.
