A fast-spreading fire caused by a person burning books reportedly damaged at least 10 structures near Bryceville, Florida, between March 22 and 23, leading to evacuation orders. At least two homes were entirely destroyed, reports said.
As of the morning of Thursday, March 23, the Garfield Road fire was estimated to be 400 acres in size and 65 percent contained, according to the Florida Forest Service.
Various fire agencies were working against the blaze, and evacuations remained in place on Thursday. Authorities urged residents not to try to return to their homes until the fire had been contained.
