Description
The size of the fire meant that extra units responded. Here, the Scott Township Fire Department from Darmstadt (northern Vanderburgh County) is on the scene. A 420,000 gallon tank containing diesel fuel, naphtha, and kerosene exploded at Princeton Refinery, Inc., resulting in a fire fought by units from 12 different fire districts; it was finally extinguished with the aid of a tower and foam unit from the Texaco refinery in Lawrenceville, IL.
