EDMOND, Okla. (CBS) – A number of homes and other structures have suffered damage after a wildfire flared up in a rural area just north of Edmond Tuesday afternoon.

Multiple crews have been called in to battle the blaze, which is reported to have started in the 600 block of Meadow Rock Trail, located near South Eastern Road and South Charter Oak Road.
