Fireworks Trailer Fire at Stanton

On the evening of July 10th, 2022, Sullivan Fire District was dispatched to a trailer fire at the former Apollo Fireworks in Stanton. I arrived right behind the fire trucks and captured firefighters as they began to fight the fully involved trailer, that was believed to be fully loaded with fireworks…

This is Drew Richards above, preparing to attack the huge blaze….

…shortly after knocking the blaze down, Drew moved over to the left side to knock down more fire on the other side of the trailer….

….while Jacob Dace moved in to the center front line and attacked the fire there….

I was also fortunate to be able to get a couple of photos of Junior Firefighter Bennett Sherrel assisting on mop up on the back side of the fire…
