A blaze on an acreage outside of Brandon caused a lot of damage.

The fire started on Monday in the rural municipality of Cornwallis when a car backfired.

There were hundreds of old cars sitting in tall grass so the fire got out of control.

The fire started after an owner tried to start one of them and it backfired.

It took a lot of time to fully extinguish the blaze and no one was injured.
