Crews Battle Multiple Landfill Fires on Walpole Island First Nation

No injuries have been reported following a landfill fire on Walpole Island First Nation.

Fire fighters responded to the area shortly before 10 Wednesday night to find three smaller fires and a dumpster ablaze as well.

It’s not clear at this point how the fires started.

Officials say it was the first real test of a new pumper, donated to the Walpole Island Fire Department from Alarnxeo in Sarnia, replacing a truck taken out of service five months ago.
