Wildfire burns into central Montana town, destroys houses
A late-season wildfire pushed by strong winds ripped through a tiny central Montana farming town overnight, burning several homes and grain elevators that had stood for more than a century, authorities said. Officials were assessing the damage in Denton on Thursday morning while crews continued to fight the fire. The fire burned “around 25 structures to include grain elevators and bridges,” the Fergus County Sheriff's Office posted on social media Thursday morning.
