BEND, OR -- Bend fire is looking into a small brush fire discovered Sunday night, in northeast Bend. Crews report the blaze in a vacant lot at NE Neff and Hamby Road was difficult to access, and it burned 1.5 acres before they stopped its forward progress.
Several trees caught fire, contributing to 50-to-75-foot flames seen in the area. Transients are known to frequent the area, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
