- Just before 5 am for the second time in just over 24
hours, Engine 501 (FF J. Rose) and Tower 501 (FF Van
Zandt), along with Battalion 581 (Higgins), were back on
the road to mutual box 07-10 for another reported house
fire on Brentsville Road. Engine 501 was once again the
first to arrive with fire showing from side A.
Suspiciously enough, it was the same house as the day
before. With a good fire going in the living room and
roof, the crew from Engine 501 quickly put the 300 in
service through what was left of the front door and made
quick work of the room off. Second arriving Wagon 509
(Lt. Gay) stretched a back up line and helped the
Tower open up. The assignment was quickly reduced to
E501, E507 and T501. Units operated for an hour and a
half. Chief 507A (Davis) had the command. The cause of
this fire is questionable and under investigation. This
was the 3rd of 12 runs that the 501 house would answer
on Saturday.
