UPDATE: Firefighters continue to squelch what's left of a fire at a Radius Recycling – formerly Schnitzer Steel Industries – facility in Oakland, a spokesman for the city's fire department said.

Firefighters on Thursday continued to squelch what's left of a fire at a Radius Recycling – formerly Schnitzer Steel Industries – facility in Oakland, a spokesman for the city's fire department said.

Complaints came too from residents of Milpitas, which is south of Oakland in Santa Clara County. On Thursday, smoke was expected to drift north of the fire. Crews were using cranes to pull it apart so firefighters could douse anything still burning. The fire ignited in a light scrap pile that may have contained aluminum, tin or light iron/steel.
