(La Porte County, IN) - Open burning posed a challenge to firefighters outside La Porte yesterday.
Firefighters from Center, Coolspring, Springfield and Scipio townships were called to a corn field fire west of Sara Lane near Beacon Hills. The dry, windy conditions pushed the flames toward a woods but firefighters stopped the fire from reaching the woods.
Residents are advised not to do any opening burning when it’s windy especially since recent conditions have been so dry.
