After yet another fire broke out in Los Angeles, images circulating on social media suggested the iconic landmark had gone up in flames.
The century-old landmark remains untouched by ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles County, despite claims on social media.
The sign overlooks Hollywood from Mount Lee, in the Santa Monica Mountains, and is not currently located in an evacuation zone, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
Social media users have been sharing fake images of the Hollywood sign burning as deadly wildfires raged across Los Angeles, but the famous landmark was not impacted, according to witnesses.
Fire officials say the flames consumed about 43 acres of land before their aggressive attack stopped forward progress.
