Brush Fire Damages Park

Cleveland Metroparks officials say a brush fire at Bedford Reservation last night consumed 40 acres. The fire started in a field that borders a residential neighborhood. Flames did not reach the neighborhood. No injuries are reported. Bedford Fire Chief Dave Nagy says crews used ATVs equipped with water tanks to douse the flames.

Nagy says the cause of the fire has yet to be determined.
