Wild Horse Volunteer Fire Department firefighters responded to a grassland fire on the 10100 Block of River Road shortly before 9 p.m. Tuesday.

It was hard to gauge in the dark, he said, but he thinks between 20 and 25 acres burned and other than the power pole and line no damage was reported. Hill County Electric repaired damage to the power line. Rismon said he was grateful for...
