Fire crews respond to a power pole on fire along the southbound lanes of Highway 27 near Deer Creek and Minute Maid Ramp Road in Davenport, Florida. The fire at the top of the pole causes power outages and traffic signal failures in the area. The burning pole is located at a construction site in front of a Publix store, and the surrounding area is mostly dirt, so additional brush units are not needed. Crews provide the utility pole number to dispatch for follow-up by the power company.
