House Fire Video 4.15.13
Structure Fire – 4/15/13
Severe clutter inside this house prevented firefighters from making headway in their attempt to extinguish this fire from the interior. The roof was vented but crews were still unable to advance to the seat of the fire. In the interest of firefighter safety, command switched to a defensive (exterior) attack. A ladder pipe was then used to knock down the main body of fire, allowing firefighters to re-enter the building to complete the extensive overhaul required.
