|
January 11
2007
- At 1156 hours, mutual box 07-06 was sounded for fire
in a house at 8250 Lakeshore Drive. With the Engine
from 507
already out on another run, Engine 501 was assigned
the second due position. Tower 501 arrived with the first due
company, Engine 506. The Tower's crew, without the
protection of a hose line, advanced ahead of the engine
company and aggressively began a primary search. In
the process, they located fire on the
first floor, and held it in check with the can until the
engine company showed up. The outside crew from the
Tower through ladders, ventilated, and secured the utilities. The
fire appeared to originate in a baseboard heater in the
living room on the
first floor, involving most of that, and spread through
the walls to the ceiling, roof, and a basement
utility room. Crews chased extension for a short
while before finally declaring the fire out.
Engine 501's crew initially backed up 506 and then assisted with opening up.
City Fire units went ready at 1315 hours. |
