“Controlled Burn” that suddenly became an uncontrolled burn is now only about 50% contained.
Burnstad, ND – Highly trained governmental environmental workers trying to do a controlled burn helplessly watched it suddenly get out of control when winds began to gust up out of nowhere.
“Yeah, no, what began as our controlled burn, ah, quickly changed over to what we call an uncontrolled burn,” reports Luton Crofoot, who lit the original fire with a casual flick of his cigarette butt.
Luton added: “Maybe we should’ve paid better attention to thee, ah, windcast for the time period in which we planned to stage our, ah, controlled burn.”
Fire containment experts on the scene estimated that the out-of-control controlled burn is now approximately 50% contained.
However, they do admit that the 50% that is not contained is 100% out of control as environmental workers try to set additional back fires which are also getting out of control thanks to the wind.
Ironically, all of the charred letters in Luton Crofoot can be hotly re-arranged to spell: Out Of Control!
