SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — The fire department in Sioux Falls is helping out in the fight against wildfires in western states.

Sioux Falls Fire Rescue on Sunday sent a vehicle and three firefighters to help battle blazes in Idaho. Firefighters Cody Vosburg, Darryn Deck and Trent Boe will be in the state for 18 days.

Massive wildfires raging in western states have taxed resources and led officials to seek help from other states and countries. There are more than 15 large fires in Idaho, and dozens of homes there have been destroyed.
