ENGINE
AND TOWER GO TO WORK ON COUNTY HOUSE FIRE |
|
February 08, 2008
– Just as the Foam Engine was clearing a traffic
accident, Prince William County Fire Communications
transmitted a box alarm for 8014 Stillbrooke Road,
bringing Foam Engine 501 as the fourth due engine
company and Tower 501 as the first due truck. Battalion
Chief 504 arrived first and reported fire to the rear of
the home. By the time companies began arriving on the
scene, the fire, fueled by the vinyl siding, had spread
to the second floor of the home. The Foam Engine arrived
as crews from 506 and 507 were placing their lines in
service to the rear of the home. While the Foam Engine
stretched their line inside, the Tower went to work
laddering the building and opening up. All crews worked
quickly to extinguish the fire before it spread to the
roof. After extensive overhaul was complete the Foam
Engine went ready at 2214 hours while the Tower remained
on scene for about another hour. |
