[Video sent to us by Cody Akin]

Firefighters responded to the corner of Ukiah’s North State Street and Seminary Avenue after reports emerged of a fire in the area.

Scanner traffic indicated firefighters came upon the area around 2:40 this afternoon reporting a fire was burning in the area emitting smoke.

Footage sent to us by a reader revealed a surprising sight: the source of the smoke was in fact a street-level storm drain.

Cody Akin, the photographer, and person at the scene, told us he watched firefighters use some sort of fire-suppressing liquid to extinguish the fire burning below.

I like to think of myself as a reporter for the Average Joe. Journalism has become a craft defined largely by city dwellers on America's coasts. It’s time to take it back. I have been an Emerald Triangle resident since 2006 and this is year ten in Mendocino County. Please, email me at matthewplafever@gmail.com if you know a story that needs to be told.
