A release states that Casper-EMS was called to the area of the 1700 block of West First Street for a wildland fire. The statement says that crews arrived to find a fire burning in grass and light fuels on the north side of The Burlington Northern-Santa Fe rail line.

Sublette County firefighters had to utilize snowmobiles and tracked vehicles in order to rescue the occupants from a burning cabin last week.

Despite challenges from the bitter cold temperatures, firefighters accessed the crawlspace area and extinguished the fire, which they determined to be caused by space heaters placed in close proximity to flammable materials.

The call came in at 12:20 p.m. Thursday.

The Casper Fire Fighters Association has set up two ways to donate.

The summer of 2020 has been one of record-setting wildfires. Have you ever wondered what it takes to be a fire fighter in the middle of an inferno? Several videos show that bravery is definitely required.

The cause of the fire remains unknown.

For the time being, people should avoid the area to allow emergency responders room to work.

Casper Fire-EMS reminds citizens that working smoke alarms save lives.

A Wyoming Type 3 team assumed command of the fire Wednesday.
