Update: Reported Vegetation Fire In Calaveras Snuffed By Locals

Update at 4:09 p.m.: Locals were able to quickly snuff a vegetation fire in the Linden area before air and ground units arrived, according to CAL Fire spokesperson Lindy Shoff.

The incident, in the 9500 block of North Shelton Road, is the third report of a vegetation fire in the areas of Jenny Lind, Linden and Milton. These blazes, all minor, were quickly contained although one may have been responsible for local smoke reported earlier this week that fire officials attributed to smolder kicking up from a previous incident.
