VEHICLE FIRE IN THE SUGAR BOWL OF TWENTYNINE PALMS

Updated 7:30 p.m. Nov. 3 with additional information.

Sheriff’s deputies are investigating a vehicle fire in Twentynine Palms Sunday. Deputies and firefighters were called at 1 p.m. to a pick-up truck burning in the Sugar Bowl area, near Amboy Road and Shoshone Valley Road. County Fire Battalion Chief Mike McClintock said the soft sand roads made it difficult for fire engines from Twentynine Palms and the Combat Center to reach the 2008 Nissan Titan, which was fully involved in flames. The owner of the truck was not at the scene when crews arrived, but deputies were able to locate him. He said he had left the truck at the intersection of Lear Avenue and Indian Trail due to a flat tire. McClintock said there was no immediate threat to vegetation from the blaze. The Sheriff’s Department is investigating.
