GREENVILLE — Multiple departments are on the scene this hour of another major fire northwest of Quinlan.
A three alarm fire is blazing along Private Road 2541, off of FM 36 in the Country Wood Estates addition.
More than six acres are reported on fire, with heavy fuel.
Units from the Union Valley, Cash and Tawakoni South fire departments are battling the blaze.
It is the third straight day that a significant fire has been reported in Hunt County.

Despite seven years having passed with no arrests, Hunt County Sheriff Randy Meeks said he does not intend to give up until he finds whoever killed Cora McAbee and Brandon Howell.
One person was injured and two people, including one of Hunt County’s most wanted suspects, have been taken into custody in connection with an early Tuesday morning high speed chase and crash.
The GEUS board of trustees intends to meet this evening, to again discuss possibly hiring a new assistant general manager for the local electric utility system.
