DOVFD units assisted the Flower Mound FD on a grass fire off of Spinks Road and FM 2499. Several other agencies were also called in to assist including Arglye, Grapevine, amd Lewisville. The fire perimeter was quickly controlled but the fire was deep seated into the wood and brush due to the dry conditions and also complicated by the high winds. The fire was suspected to be arson and several juveniles were taken into custody by the Flower Mound PD.
