When the call comes in, it takes more than one crew to get the job done.
 
The Honolulu Fire Department joined partner federal agencies for a recent simulated interagency exercise, putting communication, coordination, and teamwork to the test before the real thing.
 
Different crews. Different roles. One response.

The Honolulu Fire Department responded to a building fire at 4:28 a.m. this morning.

The first arriving unit found smoke on all sides and flames through the roof of a single-story, commercial building.

Fire fighters secured a water supply and initiated an aggressive offensive fire attack with an aerial ladder fire stream and handlines.

The fire was brought under control and extinguished at 6:50 a.m.

Overhaul techniques were performed on the rooftop and in the ceiling to extinguish smoldering materials while looking for hidden fires in void spaces to ensure the fire did not extend into other areas of the building.

The Honolulu Fire Department remains at the scene of a large recycling center fire in Pearl City, after the initial alarm came in at 2:48 p.m.

Due to the fire’s location being far from a water supply, companies ran an approximately 2,000 foot relay to get water to the scene.

Because the fire is a mix of scrap metal and tires, the petroleum composition burned fast and put up a lot of smoke.

The fire was deemed under control at 4:56 p.m. but companies will remain at the scene for overhaul.

No injuries were reported, and no structures were threatened.
