Community raising money for fire departments after Pennsylvania factory fire

VIDEO: The fire at SPS Technologies in Abington Township burned for six days in freezing conditions causing stress to the equipment for the responding fire departments. During the fire that started on Feb. 17, multiple explosions could be heard throughout the factory and, officials said, all of the 60 employees inside at the time were able to get out safely. Abington’s five fire departments were hit hard as everything from the trucks, hoses and protective equipment were broken from being frozen or destroyed. “This fire was obviously the biggest fire that I’ve gone to in my 36 years,” Abington Fire Company Chief Michael Jones told NBC10.
