Dalworth area grass fire burns acres
A Dalworth area grass fire around 5:30 p.m. Wednesday filled the air with smoke that at times limited visibility of motorists on W. E. Roberts St.
Fueled by the dry grass and strong wind, the fire spread through several acres of open land near Manning and Holland Streets.
The Grand Prairie Fire Department used “brush” trucks in the field to control the fire and keep the flames from reaching nearby homes. It took firefighters about an hour to put out the blaze.
