The call came in at 7:37 p.m.About 50 to 60 firefighters responded to what HFD described as a "building fire with hazmat." The fire was mainly contained with no injuries to crew members or anyone in the public, but at least one crew member was being decontaminated.Deputy Chief Bryan Sky-Eagle told ABC13 fires seem to be a recurring issue at Holmes Road Recycling, explaining all the metal moving around sparks up trash. Inspectors and arson investigators are looking into what caused Monday's fire and will be speaking with property owners.
" a lot of resources, so when these things happen five times a year, it's a lot of expense for the taxpayers," Sky-Eagle said.
