PRESCOTT – Fire destroyed a 1992 Ford extended cap pickup at Baker’s Sunday evening.

The call came in around 5 p.m. with two trucks from the Prescott Fire Department, a deputy with the Nevada County Sheriff’s Office and officers from the Prescott Police Department racing to the scene.

The blaze was quickly extinguished with a tool punched through the hood of the truck that sprayed water on the engine. The hood couldn’t be raised otherwise as the latch had melted from the heat.

There were no injuries in the incident.
