BIA Crow Fire responds to 4 fires in less than a week, asks public to use common sense

CROW AGENCY, Mont. - BIA Crow Agency Fire responded to four fires in less than a week.
Most recently, crews were on scene of a fire on Highway 212 that was lit by a blown semi tire in the downhill side of the highway approaching Crow Agency from the east.
According to a release from the BIA, this roadside fire flashed across 13 acres of grass in a few minutes. Four engines were able to corral the 6- to 9-foot flames by about 2 p.m.
“The semis didn’t even slow down for us,” Incident Commander Garret Costa said.
Though they were able to contain the fire, they say it was difficult with travelers still driving 70 mph through the smoke.
