WICHITA FALLS, Texas (KAUZ) - Wichita County officials issued a burn ban on Tuesday.
The ban comes after firefighters fought a large grass fire near Electra last Friday. It reached 2,300 acres in size and destroyed a home before firefighters contained it on Sunday night.
Clay, Archer and Young counties have also issued burn bans following the large fires that hit those areas as well.
