Shed Fire – Cribben Hill Drive

Shed Fire – Cribben Hill Drive

19 Firefighters responded to the report of a truck on fire in Marshall Township of Richland County shortly before 1 in the morning. The shed was located on farm land off of Cribben Hill Drive. A pickup truck was being used to pull a disabled tractor into the shed when it got stuck in loose hay that was on the floor of the shed. The hot exhaust from the truck started the hay on fire. Fire extinguishers were used to keep the fire in check prior to the fire units arriving on scene. Firefighters responded and used Tanker 704 to pull the pickup out of the shed. After the vehicle was removed from the structure the burned hay was taken outside of the shed, and the area around the fire was wet down with water. The fire explorers and Richland County Sheriff’s Department Deputies assisted at the scene.
