    Steve Guttenberg has chosen to "stand and fight" amid the Los Angeles wildfires

    The 66-year-old actor is doing his best to safeguard his home and his neighbourhood amid a renewed threat posed by high winds in the city.


    Steve - whose home in Pacific Palisades has so far survived the wildfires - told PEOPLE: "At this time I have the choice of sitting down and walking or standing up and doing what I can. I choose to stand and fight. And help."

    The Hollywood actor - who previously starred in movies such as 'Police Academy', 'Three Men and a Baby', and 'Short Circuit' - has joined forces with some of his neighbours in a bid to protect the local community.

    A source told PEOPLE: "They are having meals together, working on getting brush out of the way, trying to put out smoldering fires, and fighting embers in the air.

    "They have been getting food and necessities, portable heaters, water, through rapid relief groups and sharing everything, and basically are taking care of each other."

    Steve and his neighbours are facing a new threat due to rising winds in the Los Angeles area.

    The insider added: "Today the winds are kicking up so he's trying to clear and clean up as much as possible in the neighbourhood. It's really a game of wait and see."

    Earlier this month, Steve was seen helping firefighters to move cars in Pacific Palisades.

    The actor was keen to clear the road so that firefighters could tackle the blaze.

    Steve told KTLA 5: "We really need people to move their cars.

    "If you leave your car behind, leave the key in there so a guy like me can move your car so that these fire trucks can get up there. It's really, really important."
