Multiple vehicles burn in Road 24 fire

Glenn County Observer

Early Monday afternoon, firefighters responded to a report of a vegetation fire that had spread to numerous vehicles and was threatening several structures.

The Orland Volunteer Fire Department received the initial call. Chief Justin Chaney soon called for mutual aid from the Capay, Artois, Hamilton City, and Willows Fire Departments.

The fire was soon brought under control, and help from Willows was cancelled. Thanks in part to the winds, a spot fire or two ignited in a field south of where the vehicles were burning.

The fire occurred south of a residence in the 6300 block of County Road 24, on the south side of Road 24, just west of Interstate 5 and County Road I.

Additional information may be available in the not-distant future.
