Narrative

The haul truck suffered an engine failure which caused an outer piece of the lower engine block to blow apart. The hole opening in the block caused motor oil to spray around the outside of the engine and the hot turbo causing an ignition. The fire caused extensive damage to the operators compartment and engine.
