First due video: Gas pump & car on fire in Quiet Dell, West Virginia.

Here is part of the description posted with this video of a fire last Thursday just after 9:00 PM:

Company 7 (Nutter Fort VFD), Engines 121 (Stonewood VFD) and 11 (Anmoore VFD) were alerted for a Structure Fire at the Exxon on Rt. 20 in Quiet Dell. Engine 71 (w/5-Lt. Paugh) hit the streets seconds later with Engine 72 (w/4-AC Richards), Squad 7 (w/2-FF Hudkins), and Tanker 7 (w/2-DC Haddix) not far behind. HC911 advised units that a car had run off the road and struck a gas pump with the pump and the vehicle on fire. Over 1 mile out from the scene Engine 71 reported to HC911 that heavy smoke was visible. Chief 7 (Rohrbough) then asked for a 2nd Alarm to be struck alerting Engine 31 (Lost Creek VFD), Engine 161 (Johnstown VFD), Engine 51 (Mt. Clare VFD), and Truck 51 (Bridgeport FD). Engine 71 arrived on the scene with a working fire and quickly stretched the 1 ½” trash line for fire attack quickly switching to foam. AVFD Engine 12 was the 2nd arriving unit and hit the hydrant near the entrance and supplied E71 with water. Crews had the fire knocked within 3 minutes . The 2nd Alarm was then cancelled.
