Malone Wildfire Update

Firefighters from Tom Green and Coke counties are continuing to work the Malone wildfire, along with the Texas Forest Service, four single engine airtankers, two heavy airtankers and a helitanker. The Forest Service softened previous estimates of damage. It has burned 18-hundred acres, about nine miles north of Robert Lee, near Highway 208, and is now 70 percent contained. Crews are working mainly the south end of the blaze today.
