[Fox News @FoxNews]

Four service members are dead and dozens more are injured after a military training exercise in Canada turns deadly when a fast-moving grass fire suddenly overtakes soldiers.

Officials say the fire had been burning for hours at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright in Alberta, but commanders believed it was contained enough for training to continue.

Then the winds shifted. Within seconds, flames raced toward troops, leaving them little time to escape.

A preliminary investigation suggests a munition used during live-fire training may have sparked the blaze. | @AmericaNewsroom @DanaPerino
