Bedford volunteers douse car fire

BEDFORD FIRE DEPARTMENT PHOTOS Above and below, volunteers from the Bedford Fire Department extinguish a car fire Sunday on Route 172.

On Sunday evening just before 9 p.m., members of the Bedford Fire Department were dispatched to a motor vehicle fire in the area of Darlington Road and South Bedford Road (Route 172).

Car 2042 confirmed a working fire. The disabled vehicle was pulled off the shoulder of the roadway, with the engine and gas tank involved. 

Engine 109 crews put two lines into operation, while Engine 110 fed additional water to the attack truck. Engine 110 refilled its tank off-site and returned with additional water to help ensure complete extinguishment, the department said.

Route 172 was closed for roughly an hour by the Bedford Police Department during the incident. The vehicle was eventually towed from the scene.
