Las
t Saturday Merced County fire units stationed in Los Banos and Dos Palos were called to a fire on Santa Fe Grade in between Dos Palos and Los Banos.

There was a vehicle involved in the incident and it was completely immolated in the fire which happened near dusk.

Firefighters from Los Banos, Dos Palos, Atwater and other Cal Fire personnel were observed at the scene. It is unclear whether the out-of-area personnel happened to be doing in-service training at a local station when the call came in or if they were in the area for some other reason.

Here are some photographs from the incident .

If everyone in Los Banos would just take 1 or 2 hours a month to do something to help their neighborhood or their community we could truly make Los Banos the gem of the valley.

The above is only my personal opinion and I strongly encourage readers to seek out more information from expert sources. Copyright 2010
