The TAB’s Laura Lovett filed this.
I was walking in Webster Woods yesterday and there was evidence of a large brush fire in there as well. I had seen smoke on Sunday when returning from Wegmans. The woods are surrounded by homes and it could have been a dangerous situation. I will ask the fire department if we are looking into the cause of all these fires.
