La Honda Fire Department fights holiday car fire
A vehicle fire on Pescadero Rd. in La Honda cut short a Newark family’s Fourth of July holiday. La Honda Volunteer fire fighters quickly brought the fire in this fully involved Ford Focus under control. Luckily the passengers were able to escape the fire without injury and were even able to save many of their personal possessions.
Vehicle fires in the San Mateo County Mountains pose a considerable threat as they can easily ignite the surrounding vegetation and have the potential to cause a far greater fire.
