A utility trailer seemingly exploded and caught fire in Bunnell, according to dispatch notes from the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office.
Several people called 911 just before 8 a.m. on July 18 about a loud explosion at 2546 County Road 305, near Clove Avenue, followed by a large plume of smoke, according to the dispatch notes. When FCSO deputies and Flagler County Fire rescue responded to the scene, they found a utility trailer fully engulfed in flames.
All the employees from the area were evacuated, the notes said, and Flagler County Communications Coordinator Julie Murphy confirmed that no one was injured. It is unclear what the source of the explosion was.
Murphy wrote over email that the fire was quickly contained in under 10 minutes by Flagler County Fire Rescue personnel and it is now under investigation by the State Fire Marshal’s Office.
At this point, there is no determined cause of origin for the fire, she wrote.
This is a developing story.
