Training exercises likely sparked a Thursday afternoon fire on Fort Carson, although the cause is under investigation, a spokeswoman said. The fire began mid-afternoon in a training area on the southeast side of Fort Carson, burning 40 acres by about 2 p.m., said Dani Johnson, Fort Carson spokeswoman. Crews created a 980-acre box around the fire to contain it.
