NAPLES - A slow-moving brush fire has broken out near Golden Gate High School. The flames are between the school and SW 32nd Avenue, along the canal.

Firefighters say the fire has been difficult to access because of the thick brush and the canal, but that it isn't threatening any homes or the school.
