That from La Broquerie Fire Chief Alain Nadeau following a grass fire Wednesday afternoon.
His crew responded to the call just before 2pm at a home on the north side of Highway #52 between Kokomo and Carrier roads west of La Broquerie. He tells us caution is still needed when burning. The fire was started by a homeowner who was burning some leftover wood under some trees and near some buildings. It spread quickly. Thankfully, a couple of people passing by helped control the flames till fire crews arrived.
