Steve the dispatcher called it "calls for smoke on 36, calls for smoke on 39 and alarm activation on 44, so you're gonna have something there". Nice job!

Thank you for posting this call

It show a great job done by all.

This will also aid in training dispatchers and officers on correct radio procedure.

Horrific incident, and amazing that only one person perished in this fire. The twelve who were injured, several of whom are firefighters, are thankfully reported to have non life threatening injuries.

@recordrelics The only real "horrific" part of this job was the minority "merit" appointed officers reporting no fire and nothing showing on arrival. Yea, Affirmitive Action works...
