KAMLOOPS, British Columbia
--

A fast-moving wildfire in the western Canadian interior has sparked a new evacuation order, the second such order in the last two days.

The evacuation order covers 60 seasonal properties north of Kamloops, which is 220 miles (350 kilometers) northeast of Vancouver.

It was issued a few hours after residents who were forced out of their homes earlier this week by another wildfire had been allowed to return.

Albuquerque Journal, N.M.

A teenage boy is "lucky to be alive" after being swept in an arroyo for several miles Wednesday, officials said.

The 16-year-old boy, who was not identified, was with friends at a park near Juan Tabo and Candelaria NE when he stepped into an almost empty arroyo shortly after 3 p.m. Upon taking the second step in, a strong current swept him away, Albuquerque Fire Department spokeswoman Melissa Romero said.

The water was at most 2 feet high but traveled about 35 mph, Romero said.

WESTBROOK, Conn. --

A multimillion-dollar Westbrook home was destroyed in a Tuesday evening fire, fire officials said.

Crews were called to a home on Captain's Drive at about 7 p.m.

Dozens of firefighters were called to battle the blaze, including some on boats since the property is near the water.

No one was home at the time of the fire and no injuries were reported.

"Thought we saw a barbecue gone awry," said witness Jackie Squeglia. "Saw more smoke."
