North Arm Cove, NSW – Fire crews were called to Nerong today after a truck caught fire, igniting a small bushfire in the area. This marked the fourth emergency response in 24 hours for local brigades, following a fire in Karuah, a vehicle accident on Tarean Road, Karuah, and another fire on Cove Boulevard, North Arm Cove.
FRNSW arrived on scene first and successfully extinguished the truck fire. North Arm Cove’s Cat 1 unit then concentrated efforts on containing the bushfire sparked by the blaze. Tea Gardens-Pindimar Brigade also joined the response with their CAT 7 and the new Cat 6 appliances.
