An "out of control" grass fire is being battled at 3186 Batavia-Oakfield Townline Road.
The fire covers an estimated two acres and additional crews have been request.
No report on whether any structures are threatened.
UPDATE 2:58 p.m.: I'm on scene. Fire seems pretty much under control. Manpower-only crews were called in from Stafford and Pembroke (Pembroke's brush truck was reported out of service). The fire started as a controled burn, according to homeowner Michael Cusmano. "It just took off," he said. I'll post a picture or two shortly. Also, there is another reported brush fire near Stafford (I didn't catch the exact address) and a grass fire at 10346 Hartwell Road in Pavilion.
UPDATE 3:45 p.m.: I didn't make it out to the Pavilion fire. It sounds like it's under control at this point. Some crews are returning to station.
Just for future reference
Just for future reference Howard, Pembroke and East Pembroke have separate fire departments. East Pembroke was called to the scene of the grass fire to assist.
Thanks for the clarification.
