Merrimack, NH - Firefighters responded to a reported vehicle fire and possible entrapment after a pickup truck caught fire in a driveway and flames spread to an adjacent occupied home.
Upon arrival, crews found the truck fully engulfed and fire extending to the structure. Police confirmed that no one remained inside the vehicle and that all residents had safely evacuated the home.
Firefighters quickly brought the fire under control, preventing further extension into the residence. No civilian or firefighter injuries were reported.
The incident was complicated by leaking diesel fuel from the truck, requiring crews to contain the spill and prevent runoff. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
