Governor Jesse Ventura ordered the National Guard to provide assistance to crews fighting the brush fire north of the Twin Cities. The fire is burning just east of Interstate 35 between Stacy and Wyoming. Ashes from a homeowner's recreational fire sparked the blaze which has burned about 10,000 acres, and forced numerous evacuations. Jean Sheppy is a ranger with the national park service, and she's at the fire command center in the wildlife area.
