A North Hays County Fire Rescue firefighter examines the burned landscape behind ProStar Water Inc. after a small grassfire charred roughly eight acres of land Aug. 23. No one was hurt, but at least one structure was damaged after sparks from a power pole failure created a grass fire in the 4600 block of west Highway 290. Scott Collard, North Hays County chief, said high winds and dry conditions helped the rapidly spread.
