a

Gas station
blaze contained

QUICK ACTION on the part of a gas station attendant and West
Vancouver firefighters saved the day when fire struck at the
Chevron gas station located at 16th and Marine Friday morning.

According to a West Vancouver Fire Department spokesman, a
driver had pulled up to the station to buy a pack of cigarettes. The
driver left his van running.

While inside the station store the driverless van reversed and
struck a gas pump island. The station attendant saw the van rolling
and promptly cut the power to the pumps.

But one pump was knocked out by the van. Fuel ignited, burning
the pump and the van.

Firefighters applied foam to smother the flames within minutes.
