Authorities say no one is seriously hurt after a hot air balloon crashed and ignited a fire Wednesday evening in Rochester.

A small brush fire broke out around the basket, and the balloon drifted to the southeast. It was recovered a couple of miles from the crash site, police said. Crews with the Rochester Fire Department responded to the area of Highway 63 and 40th Street and put out the fire.
