BULL CLAIM HILL, Sevier County, Utah – A Sevier County wildfire is 90 percent contained Wednesday afternoon.

Fire officials say the 1,535-acre Glen Anna is human caused, but they don’t know the exact cause. It sparked just after noon on Tuesday at Bull Claim Hill, which is between the cities of Annabella and Glenwood in Sevier County.

Two homes were initially threatened, but firefighters were able to save both of them and there are no reports of damage. There are also no evacuations or injuries reported.

Officials expect the fire to be contained by Wednesday night.
