A bush fire erupted along Utility Drive on Tuesday, sending thick plumes of smoke into the air and drawing concern from nearby residents and motorists.
According to Antigua News Room, videos circulating on social media showed flames spreading through dry vegetation near overhead utility lines, with bystanders watching from the roadside.
The extent of the blaze and whether any homes or infrastructure were threatened remained unclear at the time of reporting. Emergency personnel were expected to respond as the fire continued to burn through the area.
Dry conditions and strong winds have been contributing factors in several grass and bush fires reported across Antigua in recent weeks. Motorists and residents in the vicinity are being urged to exercise caution.
