BREWSTER COUNTY -- The Texas Forest Service has been battling a large fire in Brewster County.

    The so-called "Ralph Keller Ranch Fire" broke out around 4 PM Tuesday. The fire quickly swelled to about 500 acres, stretching 3 miles in length.

    Three homes were threatened, and a team of bulldozers and engines were sent out to get the flames out. Los Diablos also sent a 20 person hand crew to help tackle that fire.
