Grand Rapids firefighters were lauded by a local business owner for saving a fleet of trucks at a food service facility Sunday morning.
Firefighters found five semis burning at Van Eerden Food Service. They prevented the fiire from spreading to 25 others, according to Fox 17.
The cause is under investigation.
"Early this morning, a fire occurred in our parking lot at 650 Ionia. No employees were present at the time, and there were no injuries. We are grateful for the swift response of the Grand Rapids Fire Department. Their team contained the fire within minutes and limited damage to a few tractors. Customary cleanup efforts are in progress this morning, and we anticipate no disruptions to our operations," owner Chad Van Eerden said in a statement.
