Fire officials say a grass fire that caused the evacuation of some homes in northwest Edmonton is under control.
Rowan Anderson with Edmonton Fire Rescue Services says crews responded to a call about the grass fire in the area of Anthony Henday Drive and 127 Street.
More than a dozen fire crews were at the scene and, after about three hours, some were able to leave.
Anderson says homes in the Albany neighborhood are no longer at risk.
The cause of the fire isn’t known, and there were no reports of injuries or property damage.
At the height of the grass fire, the city said there were about 15 fire crews — or 60 firefighters — on scene fighting the flames.
