3rd alarm Hazmat yesterday in Adelaide South Australia. Details in the link above. Seems it was vandals that opened taps on multiple tanks mixing many dangerous Chemicals.

It is thought it will take several days before it is cleaned up.

I went with our pumper to cover one of the City Fire stations which is about 6 stations away from us and we received 4 calls whilst there into the city area.
