PASCO COUNTY, Fla. – At approximately 9:00 AM, Firefighters from Pasco County Fire Rescue responded to the 40400 Block of Spoto Road in Crystal Springs.
When firefighters arrived at the scene, they reported a large barn with smoke and fire from inside. Firefighters quickly started firefighting operations to help contain the fire.
Due to a lack of water in the area, the on-scene commander called for a tanker task force. This task force allows additional water tankers to be sent to the scene.
