Electrical Issues Appear To Have Sparked Brush Fires In Bourne And Sandwich

Electrical issues appear to have sparked a couple of Wednesday afternoon brush fires on the Cape.

Firefighters in Bourne responded to a fire at the Bay View Campgrounds at around 2 p.m. and brought things under control.

No damage was reported in the camp area, but nearly 12-hundred Eversource customers lost power as a result of the electrical problem.

At around the same time, firefighters in Sandwich were called for a report of a downed power line on Discovery Hill Road that started a fire.

Additional brush units were called to the scene to get the fire under control.
