Fire south of P.A. still not under control
A fire burning between MacDowell and Duck Lake is picking up steam.
It has grown to about 147 hectares, said Jeanette Krayetski, spokeswoman for the Ministry of Environment. It grew significantly over night and it still not under control.
“We do believe the fire is from human activity,” she said, explaining there has not been any lightening to ignite it.
“It is presently under investigation to find out how it started.”
