YORKTON – Fire Protective Services were called to Logan Green on Thursday to extinguish a bush fire in the south-east portion of the park.
"It was a bush fire – there was nobody around so we assume it was discarded smoking material," said YFPS Chief Trevor Morrissey.
"We're urging people to be cautious with their smoking materials because it's a little dryer than we might think," said Morrissey.
Morrissey said the fire was limited to grass and trees and was probably in the area of 100 feet by 200 feet.
Morrissey said, "obviously the green leaves and stuff like that help us right now," in regard to keeping the fire at bay.
Morrissey said the fire was quickly extinguished upon their arrival.
"We had a quick response – all of our equipment is in service right now so we were able to get a brush truck – and that's the key there – we were able to take our brush truck right in there to get at it."
