Sims Metal catches fire

The incident took place at the Sims Metal Management facility at 234 Universal Drive in the early hours of Tuesday morning. After seeing the flames in the distance, the fire department was notified by a passerby. Firefighters responded to the massive fire, which, in their opinion, involved piles of debris, machines and a building. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
Investigators said they were working to determine what caused the separator machine to catch fire. It is assumed that the fire from the machine spread to the scrap metal and the building. The magnitude of the damage has not yet been assessed, he said. According to reports, no injuries were reported.
According to firefighters, this is not the first fire incident on the site. They had previously fought a similar fire at the facility and were prepared to bring the fire under control quickly. Fire Chief Paul Januzewski said the fire was no different from previous fires. However, this time the separator spread throughout the building.
