Monday morning industrial fire on University Avenue

  • March 2, 2020 at 3:32 pm

BELLEVILLE – There was a fire at a manufacturing plant on University Avenue in Belleville Monday morning around 5:15 a.m. 

Belleville Firefighters from stations one and two responded to the flames.

A transport trailer caught fire and was engulfed when the firefighters arrived.  The fire was attacked with hand lines and a ladder truck was used to apply water through the roof of the trailer to extinguish the fire, the Belleville fire department reported.

Trailers close to the involved trailer were moved away by onsite staff before firefighters arrived to avoid the spread of fire and as a result, only one trailer was destroyed.

The trailer contained scrap materials and was completely destroyed in the fire.

The estimated value of the trailer is $6,000.

An investigation was completed and the cause of the fire is undetermined.
