Authorities say the fire on Foster's Knob started around 3 p-m yesterday - It's still burning but is almost out. The Virginia Department of Forestry says around 15 acres burned.... and that an all-terrain-vehicle sparked the blaze.

Forestry department officials say if the driver of the A-T-V is located - he or she may face charges. Smoke could be seen from miles away - but firefighters had a rough time getting to the blaze because it was so high up on the mountain. Authorities expect the fire will be completely out by tomorrow.

((The mustangs may stand still in the pens - but when you try to get them out and loaded onto a trailer - it's another story.

These wild horses are captured from 10 western states, where over population is a problem. They're brought to the east coast each year to be adopted and trained. The starting price for the horses at auction is a-hundred and 25 dollars. But buyers have to meet other requirements before they can take a wild horse home.
