BRACKETTVILLE, Texas — A fast-moving fire destroyed three homes on Fort Clark Springs in Brackettville on Tuesday.
Tim Ward, chief of the Kinney County Volunteer Fire Department, said he was at his home a few miles away when he saw the smoke.
“There was a huge black funnel cloud over Fort Clark,” Ward said. “I knew at that time we had a serious fire going on.”
Dashcam video from the Kinney County Sheriff’s Office shows the moment deputies arrived on the scene around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday morning.
