ENGINE
RUNS SMALL FIRE IN THE COUNTY |
|
April 03, 2007
– At 1916 hours, Engine 501 was sent third due on mutual
box 25-10 for a house fire at 10016 Boreland Court.
Wagon 525 arrived and reported heavy smoke showing.
Reports from communications indicated that the fire was
in the rear of the home so, Wagon 525's crew pulled a
line to the rear and extinguished the visible fire.
Engine 501 arrived third, laid out from a secondary
hydrant, and prepared to run a line and check the
exposures. Engine 501 was redirected by the incident
commander to take a line to the second floor and back up
Wagon 525, who were in the process of checking the attic
for extension without a line. Once there, they were
immediately asked to stand down by Wagon 525's
officer. The Engine repositioned their line to the rear
where they extinguished a few small hot spots. The
fire had involved the rear stairs, siding, and
plywood from the ground to the roof line. Engine 501
began opening up and checking for extension. They were
assisted by Wagons 504 and 511, and Tower 525. Engine
501 went ready at 2011 hours. |
