The Central Stickney Fire Protection District received support from multiple nearby fire departments yesterday afternoon as they tackled a major fire at a storage yard. The blaze generated thick, visible smoke that could be seen for miles across the area. WGN has a detailed article with a video available HERE, and the Chicago Tribune also published a story with footage HERE. Tim Olk was on the scene and captured several powerful images of the incident. The fire occurred at 6200 W. 51st Street.
