*EXPLOSIONS* Massive Fire Consumes Brandon, MB Business

*Explosions start at 2:15, intense fire footage starts at around 1:51* At around 2:00 Monday afternoon, Brandon Fire & Emergency Services and Brandon Police Service responded to a blaze in the Inland Kenworth business at 1240 Highland Ave, off of the TransCanada highway. When fire crews arrived there was considerable smoke coming from the garage portion of the building, with flames coming out of the overhead door space. Firefighters experienced water supply issues with the closest hydrant being frozen, and the next closest was too far away. The decision was made to close the TransCanada highway between 18th Street and 1st Street so that a hose could be connected to a hydrant across the road that wasn’t frozen. In the meantime, Tanker was brought in and dropped a porta-tank to help supply 14 Pump.
