On Friday around 1:00 p.m. an 18-wheeler that was pumping diesel at the Valley Mart, for one reason or another caught fire in the engine compartment according to Chief Mello's information.

Suddenly an explosion was heard, but at that moment the fire and police units were already coming, the fire quickly gained strength in the engine and throughout the tractor, fortunately the gasoline pumps did not catch on fire, which this would have been a huge tragedy for this entire area.

Protecting themselves, firefighters approached the tractor unit and began to fight the fire.

As always, the police were at hand to close off traffic within the streets of Del Rio Blvd., the Loop towards the Seco Creek, taking precautions in case the fire would spread.

They quickly evacuated people who were at McDonald's restaurant, at the Valley Mart, Burger King and local businesses.

Minutes later the firefighters managed to control the fire and thank God that there was no major explosion or tragedy.

All the units of the fire department came to provide better assistance and provide security to the entire area.
