Incident # 17-01454 – Windy and dry conditions continued to contribute to fast spreading woods fires over the weekend despite Red Flag conditions issued by the State Forestry Commission.

One control fire in the 2000 block of Hickory Hill Road reignited and spread to a barn on the property Saturday evening.

Units were on the scene for 1-1/2 hours.

Engine 2, Engine 6, Tender 1, Tender 2, Tender 6, Tender 22, Tender 25, Medic 6, Medic 13, Battalion 1, Car 109 and Car 118 responded.
