Grass and structure fire threatening multiple buildings, Hallettsville TX


A grass fire covering about three quarters of an acre is burning near US Highway 77 South in Hallettsville, Texas. The fire involves heavy ground fuels and threatens multiple nearby structures. Spot fires and thick smoke make it difficult to see the extent of involvement to buildings. Fire crews are working to control two separate fires, including one near a structure and another in the pasture toward town. Efforts include moving trailers away from fire and monitoring spread across fences and fields.
