Crime Stoppers; Ditch Fires in Benton County

The Benton County Sheriff's Office are reporting brush fires in ditches with the warmer weather in Central Minnesota.  Alicia Mages from Tri-County Crime Stoppers indicates they aren't sure how they've been started but she says some could have been intentionally started.  She says if you see a brush or ditch fire, contact 911 or the non emergency number.  Mages also suggests to never throw cigarette butts out car windows into ditches.
