A vehicle fire partially shut down Grapefruit Boulevard in Thermal last month. The fire was reported at 1:41 p.m. at the 55-200 block of Grapefruit Boulevard. The Riverside County Fire Department responded to the fire, which threatened power lines.
It is not clear how the fire started, but wooden pallets and unspecified vehicles were found to be involved. There were no reported injuries from the vehicle fire.
Grapefruit Boulevard was shut down from Avenue 52 to Airport Boulevard while firefighters battled the flames. More than two dozen firefighters responded to the scene. Imperial Irrigation District crews also responded to address the power lines.
“Roadway fires are extremely dangerous to motorists, especially if power lines are in the immediate area. If you encounter a vehicle fire, call 911 right away. Pull over to a safe area to warn oncoming vehicles of the fire and wait for firefighters to arrive,” said Attorney Walter Clark, founder of Walter Clark Legal Group.
