Brush Fire Investigation Near I-75 and County Line

Source: Gainesville Police and Alachua Fire
West Side Dr, Gainesville, FL 32609, USA
Summary: Fire and emergency units responded to reports of smoke and a possible brush fire near the west side of I-75, just north of mile marker 374, close to the Alachua-Marion County line in Florida. Multiple units coordinated to locate the source of smoke, with initial confusion over the exact location. The fire was believed to be near the tree line and possibly in Marion County. Units staged at various locations, including a gas station and the Nicanopy exit, and checked access routes such as Southeast 26th Street. Ultimately, no active fire was found in Alachua County, and the smoke was determined to be just across the county line.
