(Missouri Valley, Iowa) – Officials with the Missouri Valley Fire Department posted on their social media page, Wednesday, that a situation where a car fire occurred Tuesday afternoon should be a reminder to motorists that they should carry a fire extinguisher in their vehicle. The department was called out to a car fully engulfed in flames near Honey Creek, in Pottawattamie County. Officials say “Upon arrival we did indeed find the car fully engulfed and requested Crescent for tanker support. We requested them because moments after this call we got a medical call and moments after that we got another medical call. A few members stayed behind from the fire call to run one of the medical calls, thankfully Dunlap’s ambulance 43-211 was just leaving the hospital and offered to cover one of the calls- we appreciated the assistance.”
