In Caroline County, members of the Goldsboro Volunteer Fire Company responded at 2 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 28, to the Bridgetown Shore Sand and Gravel Plant on Oakland Road in Henderson when a neighbor reported a vehicle fire in the area.

It took a team of eight volunteer firefighters more than 40 minutes to get the fire under control, though a 2011 Chevrolet Silverado truck was destroyed by the flames, according to the fire marshal.

The estimated loss to the company is approximately $10,000. No injuries were reported.

Officials said that the area of origin and preliminary cause of the fire are both under investigation.

Anyone with information regarding the fire has been asked to contact the Upper Eastern Regional Office of the Maryland State Fire Marshal at 410-822-7609.
