Mother Nature’s Little Rascal Causes Brush Fire

At 8:42am March 19th your FGFD responded to a small brush fire on Dartmoor Drive. The fire was contained in a small area in the resident’s backyard. Upon further investigation, the first responders discovered the cause of the fire. A squirrel, playing on top of a nearby electrical transformer, got their wires crossed causing sparks and the subsequent brush fire. The arsonist did not survive. Deputy Chief Abe Celik opted to give the offender a proper burial in the nearby woods. Just a reminder, brush fires can be caused by the most unlikely circumstances. Stay vigilant.
