2Pm and I walk out my front door and see hugeeee amounts of black smoke. Looked like a bomb went off. So i run for my camera and hit up some of my Jr firefighter friends and find out there was a huge brush fire going on in the Industrial park. We hauled *** over there and took backroutes through the run down Pysciatric center. We had front row seats to all the action, heres pics.

25 Alarm 400 fire fighter effort.
