SAN ANTONIO - A second wildfire has broken out near I-10 as crews continue to battle a massive blaze near Fredericksburg. Around 7:20 p.m. on Monday, the Gillespie County Sheriff's Office announced that a second blaze had begun near I-10 and Duderstadt, spanning 50 acres, which is now 20% contained.

Evacuations are underway in Gillespie County as a new wildfire spreads near I-10 in the area of Duderstadt Road.

A Gillespie County wildfire, named the Crabapple fire, prompted evacuations as it reached more than 9,700 acres by Monday, according to the Texas A&M Forest Service.

Fire officials weren't declaring victory over the 9.700-acre Crabapple Fire, as windy conditions increase the risk it could again spread.

As of Monday afternoon, the fire has been going on for more than 48 hours. High winds are making it difficult to battle hot spots.
