Evansville firefighters will likely be on the scene of a massive warehouse fire for several days, hitting hot spots.
The warehouse fire started Saturday and quickly spread several blocks, WTHR reported.
Every firefighter who was off-duty was called back as the blaze went to four alarms.
Videos of the fire showed the warehouse’s walls collapsing, and scenes of transformers and powerlines catching fire concerned all in the near vicinity, according to WFIE-TV.
“Obviously a very large fire,” EFD Division Chief Mike Larson said. “We’re going to be here for a while.”
“When we get to a fire that’s this massive, our flow rates of water far exceed any type of capability of a residential or city water supply,” he explained.
