Compactor sets large pile of scrap metal, tires ablaze when crushing car
Big Island firefighters discovered a 50-by-50-by-12-foot mound of scrap metal and large tires about 75% involved in fire under a covered, open steel metal building when they arrived at Big Island Scrap Metal at 9 a.m. Wednesday. Gray — and at times black — gritty smoke billowed into the air, easily sticking out against the bright blue clear sky.
