UPDATE: 8:07 PM
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) now says a fire burning along the Colorado River charred ten acres before crews stopped it from spreading.
The fire was burning along the river's north levee on tribal land. It was clearly visible from the Paradise Casino, and the black smoke could also be easily seen from Yuma.
The BLM says at this point it's pretty much reduced to embers. A crew will remain on scene overnight to monitor hot spots.
A fire investigator is expected to arrive Thursday to determine how the blaze started. The BLM also plans to send a bulldozer in to clear away some of the dry brush.
The fire didn't damage, or even threaten, any structures.
