Vehicle Fire Briefly Closes Alderpoint Road Last Night
Alderpoint Road was briefly closed early this morning just east of the Cal Fire station after a Dodge truck caught on fire a little after 3 a.m.
The driver noticed the problem soon after he started up Alderpoint Road, explained a spokesperson for the Southern Humboldt Fire Chiefs Association. The driver pulled over and contacted 911.
Garberville and Redway responded and extinguished the blaze. One tire exploded but there were no injuries!

So glad the ground is wet!!
I heard that tire explode, I thought it was a gunshot. Glad to have so many committed Fire and Rescue folks around.
Amen to that!!
And now it will sit on the side of the road forever just like the several other torched vehicles that will sit by the sides of AP road forver.
