Hubbardston, MA - Hubbardston firefighters handled multiple incidents in quick succession, first assisting Barre crews with a large-area brush fire before returning to town to extinguish another brush fire on Selfridge Road.

Crews worked efficiently to contain both incidents, preventing further spread despite the challenges that brush fires can present, including dry conditions and shifting winds. Their rapid response and coordination helped bring both fires under control without reported injuries.

Officials remind residents to use extreme caution when burning brush, as conditions can quickly lead to fires spreading beyond control.
