Firefighters Battling Lovell Canyon Blaze

The United Stated Forest Service says crews have been fighting a 200-acre wildfire at Lovell Canyon since midday Sunday. 

KVVU-TV reports officials were called around 11:20 a.m. to Lovell Canyon, north of Nevada State Route 160.

The Forest Service says pinyon juniper brush is fueling the flames ignited by high temperatures and low humidity.
