Estevan Fire Rescue Service (EFRS) crews were called out twice over the past weekend.

On Saturday, at about 3:30 p.m., firefighters responded to a report of a grass fire southeast of Estevan. Upon arrival, crews encountered a small grass fire occurring. They were able to bring it under control and completely extinguish it in about one hour.

There were injuries and no damage to the property as a result of the fire.

The second call came in on Sunday just after 12 p.m. The EFRS crews responded to a fire alarm that went off in the south area of Estevan. Upon arrival, firefighters determined that the alarm was faulty, and caused by power outages occurring at the time in the area.

They reset the system and returned to the station.
