Burning Vehicle

I was awakened at about 11:15 last night to a spewing sound coming from in front of my place. I got up, looked out the window and saw a Chevy SUV in the parking lot across the street with the interior engulfed in flames. I grabbed the cell and dialed 911 only to find it had already been reported. Five minutes later it was totally engulfed when the police and fire departments arrived. Once the firemen stretched out their hose, it only took about a minute to reduce the fire to just a smolder.
I haven't seen a report on the news, but I feel pretty sure nobody was hurt since there wasn't much of an investigation after the fire was extinguished.
I didn't get a nighttime photo of the blaze, but I did get this one this morning. It sure looks like the Chevy owner had a bad Saturday night!

  1. Another Clunker bites the dust, hopefully it was insured for at least $4500.00
    It’s a pity you didn’t get a night shot of the flame engulfed SUV or the firefighters putting it out. But I’m thankful no one was injured in the incident. Praise the Lord.
