The fire started in Otero Country and jumped the Arkansas River into Crowley County early Thursday evening.

No evacuations were issued, no injuries reported and no structures were threatened in the 400 acre fire.

My dad was the one to see it and call it in. I think that the fast response of citizens and emergency personnel makes a huge difference. I am so glad it is over.
