The recent hot, dry weather means a lot of grass fires for local fire departments.

 

Copan Fire along with Washington County Fire responded to a grass fire on Friday. The blaze occurred in a wildlife area north of Copan Lake. Firefighters were able to quickly extinguish the fire.

 

Wilson County Rural Fire also responded to a grass fire late last week near the Montgomery County line. Again, the fire was brought under control and extinguished by fire crews with minimal damage to the field.

 

No injuries were reported in either fire.
