A-Shift Truck 6, Rescue 6, Engine 11, Engine 3, Battalion 6 responded to a fire in a workshop in the early
hours of November 14, 2007. First in companies put a quick stop on it. Units operated under the command of Battalion Chief
Gene Large.
Everyday hazards will kill us! Check the pictures to the right. The gas cans were located on the rear
of the structure (side 3) in a closet type add on. The fire was venting out of the vent and exposing the gas cans. In addition,
notice the pool chemicals at the bottom. Fortunately, the officer doing the size up located this and removed the gas
cans. The "Its just a shop or garage fire" can kill us! Everyone stay alert and don't get complacent.
