"Massive Wildfire in Southeast Colorado Prompts Evacuations and Highway Closures"
The Boggsville Fire, which sparked in southeast Colorado near Las Animas, has grown to over 831 acres with 0% containment, prompting evacuation orders for residents on the south side of Highway 50. The Colorado Air Pollution Control Division issued an air quality health advisory for wildfire smoke in northern portions of Bent County. Evacuations were lifted later in the evening, and Highway 50 and Highway 101 have since reopened.
