Leaf Pile Fire At Lowes Acres

The Chillicothe Fire Department responded to a leaf pile fie at 889 Shagbark, in Lowes Acres.  The call came in at about 10:05 pm and the fire department arrived in five minutes to find a brush pile smoldering, with hot coals and sparks.

The department had been called to the same location earlier in the day but were canceled en route.

The report states the fire department found the wind was blowing the sparks from the pile onto other debris and brush piles.

About 25 gallons of water and foam were used to extinguish the embers, coals, and any fire.

The fire department was back in service for less than 10 minutes.
