Structure fire with ammunition causing fire response retreat, Marana AZ


A structure fire occurred near Anway Rd in Marana, Arizona. Firefighters initially attempted fire control but had to switch to a defensive strategy due to the presence of large amounts of ammunition detonating within the fire. This caused firefighters to back away from the structure for safety, and the fire response was upgraded to a second alarm. All residents were accounted for and no gas was found at the scene. Fire control efforts continued from a safer distance.
