episode_narrativeThe Carson County Wildfire...but later re-named the Tri-County Wildfire...started off Texas State Highway 152 about four miles east southeast of Skellytown at approximately 1237 CST. There were no reports of injuries or structural damage...however several Hoover residents voluntarily left their homes. Two to three homes and two other structures were threatened by the wildfire...but firefighters were able to save them. The wildfire was estimated to be ten miles long by one mile wide and consumed an estimated sixty-four hundred acres in parts of Carson...Hutchinson...and Gray counties. The wildfire was stopped at the Gray county and Roberts county line before the wildfire could cross into Roberts county. The Texas Forest Service reported the wildfire to be contained as of 1800 CST on the following day. A total of ten to fifteen fire departments...along with the Texas Forest Service...responded to the wildfire. The cause of the wildfire was determined to be from faulty electric lines.
