Residents of Lehi, Utah, reported smoke in the city on Tuesday, a day after a massive apartment fire broke out in Herriman, Salt Lake County. Locals shared videos of the fire which appeared to be a brush fire, though officials are yet to confirm the details.

Here's a video:

Fox News' Utah affiliate Fox13 reported that the fire appeared to be in the area of 900 North 2600 West. It is unclear if a fire response is underway in the area.

Lehi is in north-central Utah County, along the I-15 corridor, between American Fork and Saratoga Springs.

The reports of fire sparked panic as it came just a day after a massive blaze broke out at an apartment building in Herriman, 15–20 miles northwest of Lehi, on Monday. No injuries were reported but the fire burned for a long time as firefighters struggled to contain it as the building was unfinished.

This is a breaking news.
