A controlled burn morphed into an out-of-control brush fire Wednesday in the 3200 block of Walnut Road, Cullen.
According to reports, the Cullen Fire Department was paged at 3:55 p.m., and Springhill FD was called out at 4 p.m.
Units reportedly cleared the scene at 4:20 pm.
Recent rains have not helped with the dryness. Temperature is 87 degrees and the humidity is 25 percent, which is reportedly prime for a woods fire.
