Upon arrival the fire department attempted to extinguish the blaze with their booster truck but were overwhelmed due to the fire growing in size.
A larger fire unit was called in and the EPFD proceeded to continue fighting the out of control blaze.
The blaze appears to have been caused by a fire that had been set to burn trash.
