CRAIG, Colo. — The Moffat County Sheriff’s Office issued mandatory evacuations for parts of Craig after a structure fire spread to nearby vegetation Sunday afternoon, threatening several homes.
Residents living on 13th to 9th streets were told to leave immediately. However, those areas were later downgraded to a pre-evacuation status.
Additionally, a pre-evacuation notice was issued for those living north of E. 9th Street from Bryan Way to Haughey Road.
No injuries have been reported, and it's unknown if additional homes, other than the initial structure, have been damaged by the fire.
The cause of the fire, which started at a home in the 700 block of E. 13th Street, is under investigation.
Firefighters got the call around 1:30 p.m.
