A Denver firefighter was injured on the scene of a brush fire Monday near Alameda Avenue and Dayton Street.

The Denver Fire Department said the injury was thought to have been caused by contact with the pressurized hose line but that the firefighter’s injuries were minor.

Denver and Aurora fire departments contained the fire to 2½ acres in just under an hour near the Common Ground golf course, according to a Facebook post from Aurora Fire Rescue.

About 6:50 p.m, the Aurora department said the fire was out.

There was no damage to structures, and the cause was being investigated, the fire department said.

Denver police assisted with traffic control after a closure at westbound Alameda near Dayton.

This is a developing story that will be updated.
