At about 11:45am on Oct 9 2012 there was an automobile that caught fire in a parking lot managed by Greater Milwaukee Auto Auction. The fire was first seen on the north side of Brown Deer Road. The fire had grown large enough to which firefighters pulled all bystanders away due to the flames and flying glass. The fire department put great effort in reaching the fire. However, the cars were parked very close to each other preventing a fire truck to reach the cars that caught on fire. The firefighters resorted to cutting through the fence and manually transporting all necessary equipment to the fire. The video was taken behind a chain linked fence. The fire lasted for approximately 40 minutes. At the time (12:30pm) no report of anyone being injured.
