Engine 1 & Tanker 19 from Station 5 were the first fire apparatus on location and immediately put 2 bumper lines in service prior to Engine 3’s arrival from Headquarters. Crews knocked a good amount of fire before realizing the magnesium block from the engine was involved and still burning, A dry chemical extinguisher was used to smother the magnesium fire.
