Emporia and Americus firefighters handled a hay fire Saturday.
Firefighters from both departments were called to the 2300 block of Road H-5, about 2.5 miles east of Americus, just after 11:30 am. The early indications are the landowner was burning outside a hay barn when some embers apparently got under some nearby tin and went into the hay. The landowner got most of the fire out, with firefighters finishing the job.
No injuries were reported.
