Stolen Vehicle Destroyed By Blaze

GHFR personnel were dispatched to River Rd early Sunday morning for a vehicle fire. A local paper carrier reported the fire around 3:00 AM. The vehicle, a 2004 Cadillac, was fully involved when units arrived on the scene. During the initial attack firefighters encountered Magnesium burning in the floor and firewall of the vehicle which made for an interesting show. Firefighters quickly extinguished the blaze and the Burke County Fire Marshal’s Office was called in to investigate. A television and a computer monitor were also found near the vehicle and it is unknown if they are related. According to the fire marshal’s office the vehicle was reported stolen on 4-12-09. The incident is still under investigation by the Burke County Sheriff’s Department.
