Extinguisher Falls Off Apparatus - Explodes

Friday, July 10, 2009

Our Fire Dept. was called mutual aid to a house fire this am with their tanker when they crossed the railroad tracks a 25 pound dry chemical fire extinguisher broke free out of its exterior holder falling on the road and exploding luckily there was no homes in that area and no vehicles behind the truck no one was injured in the incident.

Lessons Learned: Make sure EVERYTHING is secure and that the securing devices are in good working condition
