Grass fires on the rise

With the warm dry weather, Thunder Bay Fire and Rescue has had to deal with some grass fires in the city. Deputy Chief Greg Hankkio says since the beginning of March a number of fires have been started.   He says in some cases it's  kids setting the fires and in others it's private property owners burning grass, which is against the law.   Hankkio says any burning done in the city must be in compliance with a burning permit.
