(Bismarck, ND) -- Three North Dakota firefighters are injured after fighting the Devil's Creek Fire in Garfield County, Montana.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service firefighters from the Eastern North Dakota Wetland Management District Complex were injured over the weekend along with two USDA Forest Service firefighters from the Gila National Forest.
Officials say the firefighters were overcome by the wildfire because of a wind shift while they were setting up a defense on the perimeter of the blaze that has burned about 13-hundred acres.
They were evacuated to medical facilities in unknown condition.
