SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Sept. 15, 2018 (Gephardt Daily) — Crews are battling two fires Saturday night, a large grass fire in the area of 2000 W. Indiana Ave. (850 South), and a structure fire near 400 South and 1900 West.

According to a tweet from Salt Lake City Fire Department, the structure fire is under control, and crews are holding the grass fire, which had been threatening a structure because of the high winds.
