Firefighters responded to a small brush fire near the intersection of North Sea Mecox and Majors Path. Firefighters in Unit 7-3-10 and 7-3-13 made quick work of the small fire. The fast response prevented the fire from spreading further under Wild Fire Dangerous Weather Conditions.
Don't forget when responding to and operating on the back of the brush truck to keep your head below the bars. You also need to watch your hands and arms as well. When striking trees in the woods your limbs can get wedged between trees and the bars causing sever injuries.
