That’s Julio Parra at JP’s Water Truck Services. There was another video posted on Citizen as it was happening. This isnt the first fire he has helped put out over the years.

Looks like a construction truck used to water down work sites to keep dust and dirt wet and out of the air. Another reason I'd think so is because I'd assume it and that white ford pickup around 4:45 are related, and the Ford is clearly from some sort of construction crew.

The firefighters should have stopped him. To thank him for the help and offer to fill his tank for free.

I'm thinking the fire department needs to add a new piece of equipment to their arsenal. Looks like it works pretty good for vehicle fires.

FD: "We've got a water nozzle." WhiteTruck: "Hahaha, that's not a water nozzle. THIS is a water nozzle!" 🐊🤠
