Firefighters from three cities moved quickly to extinguish a brush fire in the 13300 block of 242nd Avenue Northeast on Tuesday afternoon before the blaze could cause significant structural damage.
The fire, which burned around one-half acre of pasture, was reported at 1:24 p.m.
Lynn Cash lives on the property and said she and her family were gone when it started.
“Thank God for them, whoever called it in,” Cash said as she sprayed ash from a concrete walkway that the fire had burned up to.
