This afternoon, just before 2:40 PM, Our Tracy Fire crews responded to a vegetation fire in the area of Spring Court.
First-arriving companies found a fast-moving grass fire burning near the railroad tracks. Driven by strong winds, the fire quickly spread through dry vegetation, threatening nearby homes.
Aggressive fire attack; Tracy firefighters stopped the forward progress of the fire and kept it from extending into the neighborhood. Approximately two acres burned. Two outbuildings, two trailers, several vehicles, and a couple of homes sustained minor exterior damage.
Residents in the threatened area were evacuated as a precaution with the assistance of the Tracy Police Department. Thankfully, no injuries have been reported.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
Fire crews will remain on scene for several hours extinguishing hot spots. #tracyfirefighters ... See MoreSee Less
