Dropped Fuel tank
On Tuesday afternoon 1st July some guys were working in the area of Tonga Bob's building up a wall out of rock.
Beside Tonga Bob's is one of the oldest fuel bowsers in Vavau, owned by Vili Kaufusi Helu and currently run by the Otumohemohe company, it was build 20 years ago.
The boys tried to tidy up rocks beside Tonga Bob but unfortunately an accident occurred, the fuel tank of the bowser rolled down about 20ft height and it seemed that the foundation of the bowser was very weak.
One person hurt and taken to hospital but he is alright.
