The Minitonas Fire Department was called in to assist in fighting the blaze.
 
Manitoba Hydro and Manitoba Fire-TAC helped as well.
 
Fire crews were called in around 12:30 and wrapped up around 5 yesterday afternoon.
 
Madill says he's not aware of any property damage, except for some scorched Hydro poles and some farmer fencing.
