CORPUS CHRISTI – There have been a lot of calls to 911 Monday concerning a large column of smoke south of town.

Crews on the King Ranch are fighting a large wildfire that started around 2 p.m. Monday afternoon.

The fire is on private property, so there’s no information available on how the fire started or what exactly has been burned.

The Corpus Christi Fire Department is monitoring the fire and at this time it poses no threat to any homes. City officials do say that shifting winds could blow smoke over portions of the Southside.

People with breathing problems may want to stay indoors.
