White Settlement police officers sprang into action to evacuate several homes threatened by a fire Saturday afternoon.
First responders were originally called to a grass fire along the 300 block of Mirike Drive just after 12 p.m. but when they arrived they saw it was a house on fire.
Officers evacuated residents from the home and because of concerns about the dry vegetation and wind, officers evacuated other nearby homes. The White Settlement Police Department released video from a police body-worn camera showing the efforts to evacuate residents.Investigators say the fire may have been started by a discarded cigarette.
