Recreational shooters using illegal tracer bullets sparked two fires Sunday on the Pawnee National Grassland. The first fire, called the Coal 2 Fire, burned approximately 62 acres of the Grassland, and a second fire burned a little more than an acre on private land. Those responsible for starting them will be cited. Their names were not released. Tracer bullets and other incendiary ammunition are illegal. The violation carries a $525 to $5,000 fine and can include a mandatory appearance in federal court. Recreational shooting information is available online at www.fs.usda.gov/goto/arp/targetshooting.
