Last night, WMMFR was dispatched to a Fire in the area of cook station rd at wares ferry rd with confirmed smoke and flames by the caller. Upon arrival, Waugh crews were met with an extremely large brush fire that was a control burn.
Crews deemed it unsafe and out of control and decided to attempt to get control of the fire. Utilizing two hand lines and a deck gun, crews were able to contain the fire to its origin and not spread further into the woodline or surrounding areas.
No Injuries during the incident, great work guys!
