Pulp Truck starts fire

It was another busy day for Ministry of Natural Resources fires crews in northwestern Ontario.

For the second day in a row, there were 20 new blazes reported in the region.

While most were caused by lighting, there were some man-caused fires.

Fire Information Officer, Debbie Mclean says a pulp truck,
which caught fire on the English River Road yesterday afternoon, was responsible for a small wild fire.

N006 Q: …that fire. (21 secs.)

McLean says they attacked the blaze agressively with a pair of water bombers.
