SOUTHWEST ADA COUNTY, Idaho — As the summer heat rolls through Idaho, more and more fires are spreading across the dry lands. Boise Fire Department reminds us that fire danger is high. The fire department battled a nearly three acre brush at around 4pm tonight, near Lake Hazel and Orchard.

The fire was spreading fast and the fight was on before the fire could reach a heavy construction zone. When the fire was extinguished no structures or property was damaged, as well as nobody was injured.
