Incident Details: 

The San Diego Fire-Rescue Department responded to a series of small spot fires near the junction of State Route 905 and Interstate 805 in the San Ysidro area Sunday. SDFD stated the fire was caused possibly by a faulty catalytic converter. The San Diego Police Department had detained two people in the area near the blaze. One was released from custody and the other was arrested for being under the influence, according to SDPD. California Highway Patrol shut down portions of both freeways and crews put out the blaze within about an hour. During the battle, the I-805 connector to eastbound SR-905 was closed, and eastbound traffic was diverted off to Picador Blvd due to heavy smoke. No structures were reported damaged and no injuries were reported.
