Welding Sparks Trigger Terrebonne Fire

A brush fire near Terrebonne damaged a transmission line causing it to arc before shutting it down briefly last Friday.  

 

According to Fire Chief Chris Simmons with Redmond Fire and Rescue, crews responded to the fire off Northwest 43rd Street between Lower Bridge Way and Ice Avenue around 1:20 in the afternoon.  

 

With the help of the Crooked River Ranch Fire and Rescue and other responders, they were able to contain the fire to about 2 1/2 acres.  Officials believe the fire was triggered by sparks from welding equipment.
