As of 9:30 p.m. Thursday, the fire was 95% contained, according to Texas A&M Forest Service.

When reached for comment, Urban Park Ranger Thamara S. Flores sent the following statement:

"At 1:10 pm U.S. Border Patrol advised the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service of a wildfire start on federal property. The South Texas Fire Management program, responded to the Granjeno wildfire.

Due to the critically dry conditions within the South Texas/RGV region, the US Fish and Wildlife Service Fire Program was not conducting controlled/ prescribed fires. The Granjeno incident is a wildfire.

Currently, we do not have a specific number of acreage for the wildfire. We thank the local fire departments for their support during this incident. The wildfire is contained, and firefighters continue their engagement with mop-up efforts."
