  • @thefirefighter Not initially is wasn't.  They made an interior attack and there were 3-4 guys on a handling on the right side with no SCBA on. Seems like there was a good chance that it was a basement fire or a balloon framed house. There's no way you should get that much smoke from the first floor on an attic fire. Which is a good scenario to get FF's trapped. Which is why there should have been guys with SCBA on ready to go, ie: RIT team.

  • that was my house the 1-4 Corner on the 2nd floor is my bed room i was thare for must of the day and from what thay tell me was it was bering for 5 hrs. be for the call

  • @ffjsb it was an extiror attack

  • @jimdaddy7 All the guys standing around with no SCBA and that's your complaint??

  • Are you serious? Using irons to open a screen door @ 2:03?
