Junipine fire 25% contained

OAK CREEK – Just after recovering from the Slide Fire, the residents of upper Oak Creek were evacuated briefly from 4 to about 10:30 pm on the 16th. Reports today indicate that the fire remains as 13-acres and is 25% contained. The decrease wind-speed will no doubt assist fire fighters in their efforts. The fire was started by a downed power line. State Route 89 from Flagstaff to Sedona remains open after ADOT completed road work earlier than anticipated.
