The North Battleford Fire Department responded to several calls Friday.
At 12:45 p.m. one vehicle and four personnel responded to a downed power line at 1 Jersey Street. A tractor trailer had come in contact with two power lines.
No one was injured and the department says the incident was mitigated with the co-ordination of the NBFD and a representative of SaskPower.
At 3:49 an alarm came in of a grass fire at the intersection of 21st Avenue and West Railway Avenue, near the McMillan industrial area. The fire was contained to less than one acre, localized to the grass along the railroad right of way. Two vehicles and four personnel were on the scene for about a quarter of an hour.
At 6:04 p.m., NBFD responded to a fire in an abandoned yard off Poundmaker Trail where and a shed and some grass and brush burned. It was the second time NBFD had been called to the property in the case of two separate fires.
The cause is unknown and there were no injuries. Four vehicles and 12 personnel were on the scene for just under an hour and a half.
Earlier that day, NBFD performed a sharps pickup in the back alley on the 1100 block of 110th Street. The department reminds the public that if they find any needles they should not touch them or handle them.
