Wildfires burned in South Carolina on Sunday, prompting Gov. Henry McMaster to declare a state of emergency with many residents being forced to evacuate.

Local media reported that more than 4,000 acres statewide have burned in almost 200 fires.

"It's something that you only see on the news," said Carolina Forest resident Jeff Sgori.

The South Carolina Forestry Commission reported that many of the fires have been contained or controlled. No injuries have been reported. A statewide burning ban that prohibits all outdoor burning remains in effect.
