Burn ban issued for Garrard County

GARRARD COUNTY, Ky. (WTVQ)- The hot dry conditions have some counties under a burn ban.

Garrard County announced Friday it’s joining that list.

Madison County is under a burn ban and firefighters say this is the reason why.

Firefighters in Berea had to battle a brush fire they say got out of control on Thursday.

They say this started as an illegal burn and because of how dry it has been.
