Fire crews tackle second Foxdale blaze in a month

Mon, 14 May 2012

Fire crews have been tackling a blaze at Stoney Mountain Road near Foxdale for the second time in a month.

The fire was in a pile of rubbish which had been due to be processed.

The pile was 10m x 10m and had been burning for some time before fire officers were called to the scene.

Crews spent almost 2 hours at the scene due to the size of the fire and difficulties with the water supply.

Officers attended a similar incident in the same area last month.
