A wildfire forced a number of people to flee their homes in Fort St. John.
Residents of approximately 19 homes were ordered to leave after a fast-moving wildfire sparked up in a Fort St. John subdivision.
The order was downgraded and they were allowed to return home on Friday morning.
The fire in the Fish Creek community forest area is currently 56 hectares in size and is believed to be human-caused.
The city’s fire information officer said the flames were moving away from town, which is positive news.
There is no word yet of any structures damaged in the blaze.
