    A wildfire burned through about twelve open acres in a brushy canyon area just east of El Cajon before firefighters were able to subdue the flames Wednesday afternoon.

    The fire began shortly before 4:30 p.m. off the eastern end of Sloane Canyon Road, near Loveland Reservoir in the unincorporated Dehesa area, according to Cal Fire.

    It took ground crews and air tankers and water-dropping helicopters a little more than an hour to halt the spread of the flames.

    No injuries or damage to structures were reported.

    The cause of the fire was under investigation.
