The Bourne Police Department says a prescribed burn turned into a massive brush fire on Joint Base Cape Cod.
Officials say multiple agencies responded to the scene at Camp Edwards to assist with the fire suppression operations on Thursday.
The fire went to four-alarms with mutual aid brush units from several towns responding along with Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation units.
The prescribed burn that was previously announced was part of the Massachusetts National Guard's natural resources program to reduce wildland hazards, manage ecological pine barrens and train wild land firefighters.
Officials say the fire has been contained.
