  1. -I worked that job, it was a 3rd Alarm in Winter of 1993. It was a taxpayer fire that started in a Bar under renovation. It spread to several stores, before we stopped it at the Baba Pharmacy. I have it on vid somewhere, but no pix

    Thanks for the pic.... now I feel old I was 8 when that fire happened :). R1SmokeEater which company were you working that day. The tower ladder is the old 71? That was my favored piece of Yonkers Apparatus.

    Black Smoke Rising From Huge Plant Fire In Cocoa

    COCOA, Fla. -- A huge plume of black smoke was rising Thursday morning from a fire burning at a recycling plant in Cocoa.

    The fire was west of US-1 and north of 528 in Cocoa. Flames were shooting high into the air late Thursday morning as a huge pile of tires continued to burn.

    Heavy, black smoke could be seen billowing from the fire Thursday morning. Cocoa and Brevard County fire rescue teams were on the scene battling the blaze.

    There was no information released as to what caused the fire to start. No evacuations have been ordered, but fire crews were monitoring the scene.
