Fire crews were called in to douse a blaze of some heavy construction equipment at a site in Bricktown, Monday morning.

Firefighters were called out to the scene in the 100 block of Charlie Christian Ave., near Reno Ave. and S. Lincoln Blvd., around 10:30 a.m. The fire was under control by 10:45 a.m., but Hazmat was called in to cleanup a hydraulic fluid leak.
