Fast-acting homeowners got a wildfire under control soon after it was sparked by a lightning strike in Missouri Heights Thursday afternoon, Roaring Fork Fire Rescue Deputy Fire Chief Kevin Issel said Thursday night.
The wildfire broke out at about 5:30 p.m. along Wind River Road, a sparsely developed area south of Fender Lane. A thunderstorm was rolling through the area at the time.
“The lightning up in Missouri Heights was just crazy,” Issel said.
The lightning strike was about 50 yards from a house, he said. The occupants initially saw flames 30 feet in the air, then the fire settled down into the grasses, sagebrush and oak brush. People in the house beat down the flames and had it mostly under control by the time firefighters from Roaring Fork Fire Rescue and Carbondale arrived, Issel said. The fire was contained to less than one acre, he said.

The prosecution prevailed in the trial of Curtis Dean Shewfelt on Thursday evening despite a missing witness and attempts by the defense to block a key piece of evidence in its case to prove Shewfelt brought heroin into Eagle County for distribution in summer 2017.
After four years of dismissals, an appeal and a mistrial, the jury returned a verdict finding Shewfelt guilty on both counts charged conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance and possession with intent to distribute, both class 3 drug felonies.
In the third and final day of the trial, the jury finally got to hear more about a series of text messages between Shewfelt and a man purported to be Samuel Fightlin.

In the second day of the trial of Curtis Shewfelt, a Craig man accused of transporting drugs to an alleged Eagle County dealer, the defense worked to block the prosecution from utilizing a central element of their case: a series of text messages between Shewfelt and the dealer.
Shewfelt currently faces charges of conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance and possession with intent to distribute, both class 3 drug felonies, in a long and bumpy case that all began July 13, 2017.
In the early morning hours of July 13, Shewfelt rode in the passenger seat of his black Chevy pickup truck as his friend, Holiday Sanchez, was tailed by police for allegedly swerving on Interstate 70 near Vail. Sanchez did not pull over, but rather sped up and tried to evade police before crashing in the Avon Road roundabout in Avon, according to police reports and testimony given Tuesday.
