One dramatic shot, right time right place, just hope there were no casualties.

To put Vince's mind at ease, there were no casualties. The Fire Services decided to let this fire burn itself out as once this material melts and forms a mass it is pointless pouring water onto it as it will not penertrate. Thanks for your concern Vince
