杰克逊县林地大火控制率升至六成 受威胁建筑情况仍待确认
密西西比州杰克逊县韦德地区10月25日下午发生林地大火，到当晚8时30分，控制率已从当天下午的25%上升到60%，但受威胁建筑的后续情况尚未确认。火情最先在25日下午2时前报告，起火点位于韦德地区埃尔默·汉密尔顿路附近的林地，北临614号公路、东临63号公路。密西西比州林业委员会与杰克逊县消防救援部门共同参与灭火。
当天下午4时，林业委员会代表凯文·克拉夫特表示过火面积至少为10英亩；下午4时44分，县应急管理主任厄尔·埃瑟里奇表示有少量建筑受到威胁，消防救援人员正在加以保护。报道没有公布受威胁建筑的具体数量和类型，也没有确认是否有房屋烧毁，因此“建筑受威胁”不应理解为房屋已损毁的结论。
截至25日晚的最新通报，火势控制取得明显进展，但后续建筑状况、是否仍有威胁以及起火原因均未公布，正在调查中。
Containment of the Jackson County Woods Fire Rose to 60 Percent, While the Status of Threatened Structures Remains Unconfirmed
WADE, Miss. — A woods fire broke out in the Wade area of Jackson County on the afternoon of October 25; by 8:30 p.m. that evening, containment had risen from 25% in the afternoon to 60%, but the later condition of the threatened structures has not been confirmed. The fire was first reported just before 2 p.m. on October 25, in woods near Elmer Hamilton Road in the Wade area, north of Highway 614 and east of Highway 63. The Mississippi Forestry Commission responded alongside Jackson County Fire Rescue.
At 4 p.m., Forestry Commission representative Kevin Craft put the burned area at at least 10 acres; at 4:44 p.m., county emergency management director Earl Etheridge said a few structures were threatened and that Fire Rescue crews were protecting them. The reporting did not give the number or type of the threatened structures, nor confirm that any homes had burned, so 'structures threatened' should not be read as a finding that homes were destroyed.
As of the latest update on the evening of the 25th, containment had improved markedly, but the structures' later status, whether any threat remains and the cause of the fire have not been released and are under investigation.
