First Due Fatal Fire

 FireCompanies.com    December 7, 2011    No Comments

pAt 0358 hrs. E341 and A834 were alerted to the 2400 blk of Griffin St. in the Lewisdale section of our first due for the reported house fire. Enroute E341 was notified that they were recieving numerous calls and now reports of people trapped. E341 arrived on scene to find a 1 story single family home with heavy fire showing from side A. E341 advanced an attack line and began to knock down the bulk of the fire while truck crews from 112 and 14 began searches. All 3 truck companies made rescues from bedrooms throughout the home and handed them over to awaiting EMS units. A348 transported one of the victims to the local burn unit. The fire was knocked down shortly there after. Unfortunately the 3 victims have succumbed to their injuries. It was determined that there was not a working smoke detector in the home to alert the occupants. One member from Company 34 recieved burns as a result of this fire and was transported to the burn center. He has sinced been released and we wish him a speedy recovery. Please be sure to check your smoke detectors to make sure they work properly. Units from 34 cleared the scene at around 1030 hrs.p
