3rd Truck Fire In Past Few Months Reported In Southampton

UPPER SOUTHAMPTON TOWNSHIP, PA —The Southampton Fire Company Wednesday battled its third truck fire over the last few months.

The fire company was dispatched Wednesday morning for a tractor-trailer filled with cardboard bales burning at the rear.

Rescue 2, Nottingham Fire Department - Station 65, Warminster Fire Department, and Upper Moreland Fire Department responded and provided manpower and additional water, fire officials said.

Due to limited water supply options, tankers from Warwick Township Fire Company No. 1, Lingohocken Fire Company, and Chalfont Fire Company also responded.

The fire company did not provide where the fire took place.

The fire company thanked the Trevose Fire Company Station 4/84 for covering our station and our mutual aid partners for their assistance.
