“Everybody was trying to see what was going on,” Corey Andrews, an eyewitness, said. “I feel like I was the first person to actually pull it up and see like a good view. From down there, first I seen three flames, three big flames. As I’m getting closer, then I see four, then see five, then I see six flames.”
It’s unclear how the fire started.
