Indianapolis firefighters responded to this recent working fire in a salvage yard, and Rita Reith shared some images of operations from the scene.
Firefighters’ initial access was hampered by a 7,000-Volt electric fence. Crews bravely managed safe entry after quick assessment. More than 3,000 feet of hose laid to access the nearest hydrant to establish water supply.
Battalion Chief Kenny Bacon said 25 cars were involved, with damage estimated at $10,000
