Firefighters responded to a fire detected in the early morning hours of Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2015, at the Scotts C&D (construction and demolition) Landfill in Columbus, Ohio.
A report from WBNS-TV in Columbus says “flames sent a large plume of smoke into the air along with a strong smell” at the fire in the southern portion of the city.
It has been a difficult year at the landfill, where in August 2015 a worker was run over by a truck at the same property.
