Anderson St Fire

On the evening of June 2, 2007, E21,51,19,R25,23,C33 B-Shift Were dispatched to a structure fire. The first due engine reported flames and smoke coming from the A-side second floor and possible entrapment of two victims. BTFD SST personnel and Virginia E2, Quint 1, and Response 1 was called for assistance. The structure was entered and an initial search was performed finding no one inside. Once other units arrived on the scene, the fire was attacked and under control in a short amount of time. The house was said to be over 100 years old and was undergoing renovations into apartments. Only two of those apartments were occupied at the time. Both FD's worked well together to knock down the fire and save much of the structure. Kudos on being able to work with such great guys in neighboring cities. All together, there were approximately 30 fire personnel on scene! There was only one injury reported and that firefighter was treated at BRMC ER and released. As of this time, the fire is still under investigation.

Many thanks goes out to Lloyd Autin for the great pics of the fire!
