Apartments Evacuated Due To Brush Fire Burning In Douglas County
DOUGLAS COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4)- Some apartments in Douglas County were evacuated on Wednesday afternoon due to a brush fire. The fire broke out near the Castle Pines I-25 southbound off ramp just after 3 p.m. Wednesday.
The fire was also threatening a vacant Safeway store.
What caused the fire is being linked to a blown tire. It is unclear how many units were evacuated.
Traffic was delayed in that area since the ramps were blocked off. There were backups in the southbound lanes that snaked along for miles.
