Explosions heard at Maple Ridge fire

Water had to be trucked in by Maple Ridge firefighters to battle a blaze along 100th Avenue Monday afternoon.

Firefighters were called to the fire on a property in the 26000 block just after 1 p.m. on Feb. 2, where flames could be seen inside a large shed-like structure.

One witness said they heard explosions coming from the direction of the property.

Another person said nobody was injured, but that they lost their tools in the fire.

Ridge Meadows RCMP had the road blocked off from 256 Street to about 264 Street.

A call went out to Mission Fire Rescue Service for help.
