A small brush fire northwest of downtown Spokane in Riverside State Park prompted a Level 2 “be set” evacuation warning Monday afternoon.

It started around 3 p.m. in the area of North Equestrian Lane. Those near the horse arena and recreational vehicle park at the Riverside State Park Equestrian area were placed under Level 2 evacuations, according to Spokane County Emergency Management’s webpage.

That evacuation notice was later canceled.
