The Moose Jaw Police Service and the Moose Jaw Fire Department have been busy today.

Earlier today, the police and the fire department responded to a large grass fire east of the Ninth Avenue Bridge and south of High Street.

Then, a second large fire broke out on the west side of the city near Brittania Road and 24th Avenue.

Both fires are now under control. 

Traffic has re-opened in both areas. The public should avoid the burned areas, however, as there is a risk of a flare up.

The cause of these fires is under investigation. Anyone with information should contact the police at 306-694-7600 or Crimestoppers at 306-694-TIPS.
