A truck driven by the Town Creek Volunteer Fire Department was set on fire and destroyed in Alabama on Thursday, June 16th.

Donna F. Campbell wrote about it on the department’s Facebook page:

We had a wheat field fire today and lost one of our trucks. I was out of the truck when the fire moved and got back in to try to move the truck. The flames came up over the front and I jumped out. Another firefighter was there from another department with me and he was trying to spray water on it. This is what our truck 502 looks like now. None of my firefighters or any of the firefighters from the other 2 departments were injured.
