It was a busy day in District 3 territory yesterday!
Around 12:30 p.m., crews were dispatched to a reported structure fire on Lynnwood Drive. Upon arrival, Station 9 units confirmed smoke showing from a mobile home. Crews forced entry and initiated an interior attack. The fire was quickly knocked down, and crews checked the home for any extension. No extension was found. Primary and secondary searches were all clear, and the home was ventilated until Squad 1 confirmed the air quality was safe.
No one was home at the time of the fire, and there were no injuries. The American Red Cross was called to assist the two displaced adults. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Responding Units: Ladder 9, Rescue 9, Engine 8, District Chief 3, Tower 12, Squad 1, Ops 2, Battalion Chief 2
Then, around 2:30 p.m., crews were dispatched to a reported structure fire on Sumac Court. Upon arrival, Engine 2 confirmed light smoke showing from a pop-up camper in the driveway. There was also heat damage to the siding on the home directly above the camper. Engine 2 pulled a line and sprayed down the camper and siding, and crews opened the garage and entered the attic to check for extension. No extension was found.
All occupants were out of the home upon arrival, and there were no injuries. We did, however, spot one very good boy on scene who seemed pretty happy to see the firefighters.
