Weekend fires plague Montgomery County area
Dry windy weather sparked an outbreak of more than 100 fires across Montgomery County and adjacent towns. The Gatthersburg Fire Company fought 16 field blazes on Saturday and Sunday while the Independent Hose Company of Frederick tackled six fires. Braddock Heights and other departments battled multiple grass and field fires with little to no damage reported. A truck upholstery fire at a junk yard caused by an acetylene torch was noted, and a fatality was not reported in this section.
