2823 East Buno Road, Milford · Nov 3, 2026, 1:45 PM

Milford Fire was dispatched around 1:45 PM to an outdoor fire at a salvage yard at 2823 East Buno Road, where a caller reported the fire was spreading and crews found smoke showing. Mutual aid engines, ladders and tankers from surrounding departments were called, with staging set up nearby and water relayed over long hose lines. Crews spent many hours working hot spots in the scrap piles and tree line along the railroad tracks, using an excavator to pull apart piles and a drone to check temperatures. By about 1:37 AM crews reported nothing visible coming off the pile and said they believed they had it, though the radio did not say the scene was fully cleared.
