Thief River Falls<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A Thief River Falls man has been cited after a field fire was reported outside Holtan Iron.<\/p>\n

The sheriff\u2019s office received the report on May 1 at 11:31 a.m. The report said the fire was burning in a field near the business.<\/p>\n

Authorities later cited Dean Gustave Holtan, 64, of Thief River Falls<\/strong>. The citation was for forestry, open burning, and prohibited garbage.<\/p>\n

Fire Reported Near Holtan Iron<\/h2>\n

The incident began when the sheriff\u2019s office was told about smoke and fire in the field. The location was described as being outside Holtan Iron.<\/p>\n

Officials did not release details about the size of the fire. The report also did not say whether any buildings were threatened.<\/p>\n

No injuries were listed in the brief incident report. No damage estimate was included.<\/p>\n

Open Burning Rules<\/h2>\n

The citation involved open burning and prohibited garbage. Open burning rules are meant to reduce fire risk and smoke hazards.<\/p>\n

Residents can review Minnesota burning rules through the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources<\/a>.<\/p>\n

State law and related rules are also available through the Minnesota Revisor of Statutes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A citation is not a finding of guilt. Court or agency action may follow, depending on the case.<\/p>\n

Authorities did not release more details in the report.<\/p>\n
