Guam - A grass fire in Barrigada this afternoon sent Carbullido Elementary School students home early.  The blaze began just before one o'clock this afternoon. Guam Fire Department spokesperson Lieutenant Ed Artero says firefighters put out the fire that appears to have started as a grass fire that engulfed an abandoned structure in the jungle area behind the school. 

Students were initially evacuated due to the plumes of smoke that encompassed the campus but they were later released early.
