Firefighters were quickly able to contain a small brush fire that broke out in the Sepulveda Basin on Sunday. 

The fire was reported at around 5:30 p.m. in the 6200 block of N. Balboa Boulevard, near the Sepulveda Basin Sports Complex in Granada Hills, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. 

By 6:10 p.m., crews reported that they had contained the blaze, which consumed just about two acres of grass. 

They were expected to remain on scene to mop up hot spots and create a wet line around the perimeter to prevent any further flare ups. 

No injuries were reported and no structures were damaged. 

It's unclear exactly what sparked the fire.
