Firefighters in Boca Raton are working to extinguish a brushfire of north of Clint Moore Road.
Boca Raton Fire Rescue Services Department leaders say the brushfire that began last Thursday morning was under control. Crews are currently conducting the controlled burns in the area of the brushfire to use up nearby fuel to prevent a possible rekindling from spreading the flames. Fire crews with multiple agencies are also working to put out any remaining hot spots.
The fire has caused large flames and smoke to billow into the air. Smoke can be smelled for miles depending on the location.
"There’s no need to be worried," said Boca Raton Fire Rescue Services Department Deputy Fire Chief Jamie Smith.
