Fast response by local fire crews set the minds of a residents in the China Graveyard Road area at ease. A vegetation fire was reported at 1:56 pm as spreading on a a hill. The fire was moving from the edge of a residence’s property down the hill towards the Kennedy Mine Apartments. Residents watched to be sure they didn’t need to evacuate as the fire creeped towards the apartments. Crews arrived on scene and went to work immediately and a short time later the fire was out. Fire crews remained on scene mopping up hot spots. It appears as though the fire was started by a tractor being used to clear weeds on a property.
