Sus Dude Messes with Sprinklers During Wildfire 🔥🛑

The Tea

Okay, so boom. There's this massive wildfire east of Redwater, and Sturgeon County is officially in a state of emergency. This thing is outta control and HUGE – like, over 3,200 hectares huge. 🤯

The fire crews are out there doing the most, trying to contain this beast, and they're getting help from helicopters. They kept watch over everyone's cribs overnight. Plus, the cloud cover and a lil' rain helped chill things out a bit, thankfully. 🙏

But here's the real tea: The RCMP cuffed some dude for allegedly messing with the sprinkler systems that were set up to protect people's homes from the fire. Like, who does that?! 🤦‍♂️ He was caught trespassing in the evacuation zone.

Speaking of the evacuation zone, if you're one of the residents who had to bounce, you gotta stay away from the area. Enforcement officers are patrolling, and if you try to sneak back in, you might get charged. The county is worried about everyone's homes, their food, and their pets, so it's a whole situation. 🥺

Alberta Wildfire even sent a drone with an infrared camera to find the hot spots, but the rain was like, "Nah, I'm good," and stopped the scan. 🙄

If you're evacuated, make sure to check in at the reception centre at the Morinville Leisure Centre or give them a call. Stay informed and stay safe, y'all!
