LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) - Crews have contained a wildfire in Sherwood this evening.

Five to eight acres burned near an old, abandoned feed mill on Rixie Road in Sherwood, and caused part of the nearby railroad and part of Rixie Road to be shut down. No evacuations were made.

The railroad is now open.

Officials say there was a lot of debris in the area. It is 100 percent contained.
