The Trion Fire Department says one of its engines was responding to emergency traffic sparked by a vehicle fire in the Spring Creek area in Trion when the alarm sounded for a large field fire.

Trion FD says the field fire on Nellie Lane grew to approximately two acres, potentially threatening nearby woods and structures sometime Sunday.

They say assistance from Engine 9, 4, 11, and Squad 11 made it possible to extinguish both fires without spreading and causing more damage.

Trion, Summerville, Hayes and Telgoa Fire Departments all responded.
