A small field fire was extinguished Sunday afternoon in Wrightstown Township.
Fire crews were dispatched at approximately 1:40 p.m. to a field on Penns Park Road near the Middletown Grange Fairgrounds.
A Newtown Township police officer and several bystanders were attempting to subdue the field fire, which was being fanned by Sunday’s brisk winds.
The Lingohocken Fire Company deployed a field truck and a tanker truck to douse the remaining flames.
The quick response made sure the fire, which occurred during a sustained period of dry conditions in the region, did not spread.
No injuries were reported.
Dry weather has been cited as a factor in several recent brush fires in the region.
