Firefighters working to contain Draper blaze

Oklahoma City Fire Lt. Steven Parks said firefighters in the area are operating roving commands, which means they’re trying to keep the fire contained. Eight brush pumpers and three engines are working on hot spots in the area.

“They have good control on the outside edges of the fire,” he said. “But they’re mopping up and making sure it doesn’t spread.”

Firefighters still aren’t sure exactly how many homes have been destroyed by the grass fires.
