Driving home from Jet Boating on Saturday night i came across an MVA - Roe Hwy x Kwinana Fwy on the northbound on ramp to the freeway, under the bridge

Commodore was in a pretty bad shape. Two Pumps in attendance along with a few WAPOL and SJA vehicles. Didn't catch the station names on the trucks but im guessing it would be Canningvale MP+LT and Murdoch MP+LT. Possibly and MPHR from the closest station with one. I don't know the outcome

Canning Vale has a heavy pump :wink:

Closest MPHR would've been Freo 2nd.

Were the two appliances Mark 3 Scanias or Mark 4s?

Just piles of crushed cars on fire mainly dealt with by sims metal own fire resources (hose off hydrants with foam mix) also two large machines ripping the pile apart.

2nd alarm 88 on arrival i think (transmition i herd was scratchy). The number of appliances asked to turn out was becaue of the large amount of smoke coming from area. Once success had arrived they stood freo and belmont icv down.

Our AMP building in the City had a DBA approx 10mins ago.

Turned out to be False Alarm - poor Chief Fire Warden, sounded so distressed over the PA system.

Pretty sure I can see either Perth 2nd or 3rd on Ground Level.
