The owner was taking apart a mobile home and burning debris in a burn pile when the wind blew embers into the dry grass, Capt. Jarrett Hetherington, Sallisaw firefighter, said.
The fire destroyed a flat bed utility trailer and caught the mobile home on fire, Hetherington said.
The fire rekindled Tuesday afternoon and firefighters fought the blaze for another two hours. The fire destroyed an outbuilding, and burned about one area, Hetherington said.
Sallisaw Fire Department is issuing very limited burn permits due to the very dry conditions in the area. "The ground, grass, and leaves are very dry and residents needs to be very cautious when burning outside," Hetherington said.
