On Wednesday afternoon around 4:30 p.m. Sifton Fire Department responded to a report of a field and bush on fire.

Because of the size of the fire, Dauphin Fire Department was also requested and arrived to assist.

The fire started with a burning barrel where embers carried into some grass.

The owners were present and helped extinguish the fire by using their equipment to make a fire break to stop the flames from spreading.

Fire Chief Cam Abrey says with the owners and departments working together, the fire was contained quickly and there was no damage to any structures.
