Yesterday afternoon, the Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services were dispatched to the area near 2250 Dry Creek road for a vegetation fire.
Firefighters at the scene found approximately a quarter of an acre burning underneath power lines. Though the fire’s spread was slow, fences and power lines in the area made containment difficult.
The fire was ultimately contained a few hours later.
The cause of the fire was a downed power line following a bird strike.
