RUSK COUNTY — A fire has been contained after it began burning again on CR 316D near CR 314, also known as FM 3310, in Rusk County. KETK says officials had evacuated two homes at the end of the road but have since been allowed to return. Rusk County Sheriff’s Department Public Information officer Viki Penny said that it’s a dead end road, so they were worried that residents could be trapped if the fire spread. The Henderson, Mt. Enterprise, Eastside, and Laneville Fire Departments and the Texas Forest Service responded.
