I turned my camera on while I was slowly (due to conditions) responding to a reported electrical fire in a house on South Turnpike Street. I actually turned around and went to the scene, as I carry two 15lb extinguishers. The shot resumed when it was determined that the situation was out of our hands, and people were in danger in the confines of the borough. I was going down Mosier Hill to park, ask locals if they wanted to evacuate and get the second ambulance to execute said evacuation. But I got stranded by a sudden rise in water. When it stopped raining for five minutes, we hurried and got the trucks out to Main Street, via Mosier Hill and Overton Road. Caution - Language around 1:35 - A local individual drove through caution tape I strung across the bridge, broke it, and went right into the intersection which had about 18" of water. He was willing to risk our lives, b/c you know damn well the first thing he'd have done was dial 911 when swept away. I waved by arms for him to stop, he smiled and kept coming. That was my most reasonable reaction. Shot with my Point of View waterproof cam. This is purely for the purpose of showing my point of view, as an individual, I do not represent nor is this a film by Dushore Fire Dept. Keep negative comments to yourself, I'm not the complaint department.
