Fire At Rear of Factory Unit
St Austell Road, Probus at 13/04/2009 17:04
Two crews from Truro and St Austell attended a call to a fire at the rear of a factory unit. Upon arrival they found a tractor on fire at the rear of the factory. Crews requested for Western Power engineers to attend, as overhead electricity cables were involved in the fire. Due to the electricity, crews set up two monitors on the fire and maintained a defensive stance against the fire. Once the electricity supply had been isolated by engineers, crews used two main jets to extinguish the tractor and telegraph pole on fire.
