Wild Fires Across South Central Oklahoma

Updated:

Multiple fires going on during KTEN News at 5 Thursday.

In Love County, evacuations started early Thursday afternoon on the western side of Oswalt Road... Near Wade and Pike Roads.

No structures burned yet, but there are some in danger. Another fire, two miles north of Marietta.

And two along Interstate 35, as well.

The situation in western Carter County is very serious, with an explosion at the Champion Chemical plant, and another at a propane distributor, also on fire.

We've also confirmed a fire in the Fox/Graham area... The Graham Fire Department itself caught on fire.

The First Baptist Church in Fox also burned.

KTEN's Meredith Saldana reported live on KTEN News at 5 on a big blaze in the Healdton area.
