event_narrativeSouthwest winds of 25 to 45 mph spread a wildfire across rural Pottawattamie east of Oakland and Carson. The blaze swept across 4,000 acres, destroyed 4 homes and many outbuildings, and left about a dozen people homeless. Total damage was reported at one million dollars. Two firefighters were treated at a Council Bluffs hospital for smoke inhalation and were released. The fire evidently spread from a tree stump that was still smoldering from being burnt several days earlier. The fire's containment was greatly aided by farmers who began plowing fields under ahead of the blaze. The fire was first reported around 1 pm and was contained around 7 pm.
