Firefighters are asking residents to be careful with agricultural burns this spring after a dry winter. This fire on County Road 510 got out of control on Wednesday, burning 12 to 15 acres and getting close to a neighbor's home. Initial reports said no one was injured in the incident. About a dozen trucks and tankers were dispatched, and several firefighters from Upper Pine River Fire Protection District fought the blaze.
