(Shelburne, MA) — The threat of outdoor fires continues to grow in Western Massachusetts. That was certainly true yesterday in Shelburne, where a downed power line sparked a fire in the woods off Patten Road. Shelburne and Colrain firefighters were able to bring the blaze under control, but it still managed to burn roughly two acres of forest land. No injuries of property damage have been reported.
