Stockton had two major fires take place in the space of 24 hours. The first one was at a recycling plant in the port area. Cardboard and plastic. Very smokey, very smelly. (Back in the day I and Kenny Morris caught an escapee there. He had hidden in a hollowed-out cardboard bale. Pretty sneaky actually.) It was a three or four alarm fire.
The next night brought a six alarm (general alarm) fire at a pallet plant and Masonite manufacturing facility that brought down some high voltage lines and put a fair chunk of Stockton into the dark, including a lot of downtown street lights and city hall. Fortunately there was only one injury total during both fires.
No information yet regarding causes.
