Lake County Fire Protection District and CAL Fire put out a fire that burned approximately 1.5 acres on Wednesday afternoon. The wildfire hit Spruce Grove Road near Cantwell Ranch Road in Lower Lake. On scene were three engines, one Hel-O, and one hand crew from CAL Fire. One engine and one Water Tender from LCFP were also present, resulting in a crew of about 25 fire personnel that tackled the fire. The fire was caused by a mower that was used during 100-degree plus weather. LCFP advises not to mow a lawn after 10 a.m. on a hot day. – Bob Minenna
