The bad news: Arizona’s Wallow wildfire is now the state’s largest-ever. The good news: Firefighters got some control over it yesterday, and it is now 18% contained. But "the great news,” says a fire official, “is we still have a total of seven injuries and they're all minor.”
The blaze, which has destroyed 32 structures but caused no serious injuries, is 18% contained, fire officials said Tuesday.
"The great news on this incident is we still have a total of seven injuries and they're all minor," said fire incident command spokesman Peter Frenzen.
