NANAIMO — Coastal Fire Centre crews quickly handled a small bush fire south of Nanaimo.
The blaze, discovered overnight between July 31 and Aug. 1, grew to about a half-acre in the South Forks Rd. area, according to fire information officer Dorothe Jakobsen.
“We’ve got a crew working it and it’s already being held, which means it won’t spread,” Jakobsen told NanaimoNewsNOW.
It wasn’t immediately clear if the fire happened on private or public land.
