Firefighters responding to a "still alarm" fire in the street found a carport and part of the house fully involved in fire and struck a 1st alarm for additional equipment.
@lumpy46 could you find any other little things to find wrong? gimme a break dude, been an arson investigator for 19 yrs and you mention a wall collapse and losing evidence? get real, it's a fire in mid winter and they did a knock down in 8 minutes with no injuries, but of course your some super firefighter hero....
@lumpy46 I am with you on most of your assessment/size-up. Except, I think engine placement is appropriate allowing the truck to take the numbers. Also, I am quite sure that's a 21/2 not a 13/4 that was pulled initially. However, I DO think they pulled a 13/4 during overhaul. What you didn't mention is the goon that dropped the line @ 8.00. What else spells disaster? Poor staffing..
Lets size this up,,,,,engine placement, idle pressure on an 1 3/4 line, why not a 2 1/2 on the first attack, no masks on,,,,,dangling from waist, people not in gear in IDLH area, pulling to much LDH and having it kink, no safety officer, pulling roof/ceiling/debris while other stand close, having a wall fall possibly destroying evidence, and over haul with no packs on. All this spells disaster.
@gsarjos I bet Lumpy46 doesn't get invited to many parties.
