    CRANE COUNTY A 31-acre fire kept Crane and West Odessa volunteer firefighters busy through Wednesday afternoon, West Odessa volunteer fire chief Jimmy Ellis said.

    No injuries or structural damages were reported in the fire, which the Texas Forest Service reported as being 17 miles southwest of Odessa according to a news release.
