Firefighters Friday were working to contain a slow-spreading acre-wide brush fire that started in Jurupa Valley.

The Riverside County fire Department received a report of the blaze at 10:34 a.m. in the area of Limonite Avenue and Marlatt Street.

Fire crews arrived to find a vegetation fire near the river bottom at what was described as “a low rate of spread.”

No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire was under investigation.
