West 麻豆精选 Fire Rescue (WKFR) fire chief Jason Brolund confirmed to Black Press Media that WKFR and BC Wildfire Service crews were on scene Friday night and Saturday morning. He described the blaze as "a small and slow-moving fire in that area"
"It was monitored overnight and will be knocked down this morning," said Brolund, who added the cause is believed to be burning piles that have grown beyond their original size.
