(Friendship, Ind.) – Area residents are being reminded to be diligent and ensure that fires are contained before leaving them unattended.

The fire was found south of Olean at the corner of County Road 750 South and State Road 129.
While a cause was not confirmed, the fire appeared to have started from a burn barrel, according to the fire department.
Firefighters used about 300 gallons of water to extinguish the blaze.
