Fairfield Motel 6 Scorched By Fast-Moving Grass Fire

FAIRFIELD (CBS13) — A fast-moving grass fire forced families to evacuate a Motel 6 in Fairfield.

The fire started just before 7 p.m. and quickly moved on the motel. Police went from room to room, breaking down doors to make sure everyone had evacuated.

Minutes later, the fast-moving fire fueled by the wind spread from the grass and brush to the Fairfield Motel 6.

Many tonight are relieved they got out, but now they're looking for a place to stay.
