Crews battle garbage fire at St. John's landfill
Crews from the St. John's Regional Fire Department are battling a flare-up at the regional landfill in Robin Hood Bay.
This comes as hot, dry conditions feed raging forest fires in central Newfoundland and the department of Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture extends a ban on open fires to the entire province.
Black smoke is billowing out from the scene. Crews are asking everyone to stay away as they continue to work.
More to come.
