This afternoon Station 4 was called to a vehicle fire in Lake Township. We were advised it was fully engulfed while in route. Firefighters fought for over two hours to knock down and extinguish the flames using water from four trucks and mutual aid from Station 6 tanker due to a full tank of gas and a bed full of building materials. Special thanks to NPS and Benzie Co Sheriff’s Dept for traffic control and support, and to Big Dog towing for your quick response. There were no injuries, the driver and his sweet dog, Oakley, are safe and sound.
