6:30 a.m.

At least 12 families have lost their homes because of a wind-driven grass fire that has burned nearly 16 square miles in central Wyoming.

The fire started Saturday in a composting area at a regional landfill near Casper. Winds gusting up to 50 mph on Sunday pushed the blaze to the east, forcing evacuations in the Evansville area.

Natrona County Fire Marshal Bob Fawcett says no one was injured. Homeowner Daniel Clark tells the Casper Star-Tribune (http://bit.ly/1K6sR9d) that along with his house and barn he lost six dogs, five cats, two horses, a cow and his wife’s wedding ring. He was able to rescue two dogs and a horse before smoke forced him out of the area.

The Wyoming State Fire Marshal’s office is investigating the cause of the fire.
