(KNZA)--It was an active Monday for the Sabetha Fire Department, with the department responding to three calls. 
According to a release posted to social media by the department, the first call involved an automatic fire alarm at a residence after food was burned on a stove. Firefighters responded and ventilated the home to clear smoke. No injuries were reported. 

The department’s second call was for a small brush fire north of Sabetha. Crews responded and the fire was quickly brought under control. 

The final call Monday afternoon involved a trash and leaf pile fire within the Sabetha city limits.  

Fire officials remind residents that despite recent snowfall, brush remains dry and can spread quickly, especially when winds increase. Residents planning controlled burns are urged to use caution and closely monitor conditions.
