VIDEO: On Monday, firefighters continued to battle the East Desert Fire in Cave Creek, where 130 homes have been evacuated, according to the Arizona State Forestry. Cave Creek resident, Priscilla Bokhara, said when she saw "Seven Sisters" ridge, all she could think about was saving her livestock, two pigs and three horses. “We live up in Cave Creek and so on our way to Anthem, I saw smoke and that’s never a good sign when you live in a hot, dry area,” said Bokhara. Overnight, many homeowners were forced to evacuate. Bokhara and her husband were able to pack their car in a hurry but since they don’t own a trailer, their horses were still not out of harm’s way.
