ORIGINAL:
A vehicle is fully engulfed in flames outside of a residence in Beverly Hills Estates in Okanagan Landing — a gated community in Vernon.
Reports came in just before 2 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 10, stating the fire started on a machine in the bed of the apparent work truck, but the truck is about 10-feet away from any structure.
Two workers with a North Okanagan company were working on insulation extraction when one noticed the truck was on fire.
Both workers got out safely.
The home, which is unoccupied at the time, was undamaged.
One Vernon Fire Rescue Services truck is on scene with a few firefighters.
Other firefighters are tied up dealing with a house fire on Blue Jay Road.
