The devastating Palisades Fire caused thousands of people to lose their homes including soap opera star Eric Braeden. Last week the actor, who plays Victor Newman in CBS’ “The Young and the Restless,” was returning home from work when he got word that the fire was raging close to his home. At first, a fire official told Braeden’s wife that the wildfire was heading west and not to worry. Moments later Braeden said he saw flames burning nearby. “Within 20 minutes it was an inferno,” he explained.
