Seen the coppers and the fire trucks head that way, wasn’t sure what all the chatter on the scanner was about but here we have it, thanks for the update!

I saw this while on my way to Eureka. It was well off the road on a broad pullout, and there were a number of firetrucks and police vehicles all flashing their lights while smoke poured upwards from the back of the truck. Impressive. Glad they got it out.
