On September 4, 2020 at 0616 hours NFD units were dispatched to 154 S. 6th Street for report of a house fire. While responding the dispatcher advised they were receiving additional calls reporting a working fire.
This house was located in an old section of town where houses are built behind other houses making access to it somewhat difficult.
The following equipment was on the initial assignment:
Battalion-1 with a crew of 1 (Me)
Rescue-1 (engine/rescue) with a crew of 4
Tower-1 (105 ft platform) with a crew of 4
Ladder-3 (100 ft ladder) with a crew of 4
Medic-3 with a crew of 2
Engine-52 (Heath FD) with a crew of 2
Engine-2 and Medic-2 were tied up at an auto accident when this fire was dispatched.
The working fire announcement brought an additional 2 engines and 1 medic
Rescue-51 (Heath FD-engine/rescue) with a crew of 3
Rescue-201 (Granville FD) with a crew of 4
Medic-201 (Granville FD) with a crew of 3
Upon arrival a 360 of the building revealed the home was a duplex with 1 apartment upstairs and 1 apartment downstairs. Both were vacant and in the process of being remodeled. There was fire showing on Delta side from the ground extending to the roof line with extension into the second floor. The initial attack crew had to enter the rear door to gain access to the 2nd floor apartment. A total of 3 handlines were utilized to extinguish the fire.
There were no civilian or firefighter injuries at this fire.
This video was recorded with a Motorola Z Force Droid cell phone, which limits the length of each video to about 30 minutes. The PIP Helmet Cam footage was recorded with a Fire Cam 1080.

@ffjsb 3 года назад

Hey Chief, is there a reason the first line didn't do an initial knockdown on the exterior CD corner?

@pirox2720 3 года назад

I believe it was the first line, due to where the power line was attached to the house that was a dangerous route to run the line and work on the knock down.

@commandvisionfire 3 года назад

Good question. I struggled with the initial line hitting the fire on the CD corner first. I had Ladder-1 pulling a second line to hit that fire but the line was a little delayed getting charged. So my top priority was to get a line to the second floor apartment to stop the spread of fire and try to get a quick search for occupants. You or I wouldn't be wrong to hit the exterior fire first and knock it down. I was thinking I could accomplish both simultaneously with two lines. I hope that makes sense.

@chronically.advocating 11 месяцев назад

David Decker I'm curious. I've learned a lot of things fire buffing while following comms, and one thing I've learned is the more water you can put on a fire the better the result. So the question is why if you have a tower ladder available would you not use it's elevated master stream to k/d the fire? This is of course knowing that the dwelling is unoccupied.

@commandvisionfire 11 месяцев назад

This house was located in an narrow alley. Getting a ladder truck in position would have difficult at best. Additionally, we had to get to the second floor to search as we did not know if the second floor was occupied.

@chronically.advocating 11 месяцев назад

@@commandvisionfire Thank you for the information. I thought it was known before going in that both were vacant so that does explain a lot, and yes if the alley was the only real access I can see it being very difficult to position a tower ladder.

@549BR 3 года назад

I was holding my breath as I watched two firemen on that bowed ladder with no ground support. I've seen two firemen fall with broken backs and other injuries, so I'm really sensitive about ladder usage.

@Jarl_Thidrandi 3 года назад

I hope those ladders are a bit sturdier than the ones you buy at home depot, especially with the angle they laid it at. I was always taught to stand with the base of the ladder at your feet, and extend your arm forward and you should be able to grab a rung with out leaning or bending your elbow, then you know its the right angle.

@funkidyo 3 года назад

@@Jarl_Thidrandi No one does that arm rung fire 1 and 2 crap, try rescuing someone and trying to go down a ladder with that steep of an angle. They do it at that angle so its much easier to bring a victim down. As for why they did it for climbing the roof, your guess is as good as mine

@georgec2898 3 года назад

First off the foot of the ladder is definitely in the grass/dirt thus dug in. The ladders firefighters use are some of the strongest out there and the rungs are overlapped adequately and I see nothing wrong with the angle. This was perfect example of ladder ops with out the truck ie main ladders.

@georgec2898 3 года назад

I will say that they should have put on the air (radio) that the 2nd floor access on the A (Alpha) side via ladder was gone and moved for roof ops.

@robismod 3 года назад

BR549 watching it I was a bit concerned too, but then my viewing “angle” wasn’t very clear-maybe even a little deceiving. However, my eyes thought I saw some twist toward the right side, and then when I saw more than one person on it, I thought it might give way. I believe it was more illusion for me as these guys are good at what they do (that doesn’t mean pros don’t make mistakes) and were on their game. Still...made me hold breath too...😉

Hey chief! Love your videos! You guys in Newark are doing great. Don’t know if you’ve seen it, how do you feel about the Milwaukee method for vertical ventilation on a peak roof? It appears that maybe you operate your ladder companies with a crew of 3. I think you guys would greatly benefit from using this method. The only thing I noticed was the ladder crew removing the division 2 egress ladder to use for venting. Other than that, great job! Keep it up!

@commandvisionfire 3 года назад

I'm loving the helmet cam! Question for you Chief. When you have ordinary citizens come up to you vehicle window, and start a random conversation that you notice has nothing of major importance to the current situation, how important is it, and how are you able to get them to essentially leave you alone to properly conduct your job? I understand how this my sound harsh, but I'm meaning for this to be a completely serious question.

@commandvisionfire 3 года назад

That is a very legit question. I usually say something like "let me get back with you". I want my full attention on the scene and the radio. But on more that one occasion I have rolled up the window and locked the door on people that just don't get the hint. Sometimes it makes people mad, but my priority is the scene and the firefighters inside the hazard zone.

A crane operator at work has a “Do Not Disturb” sign on his door...you should get one made.

Do you guys use the P25 system for your department and county?

@spikedadawg151 3 года назад

Why did the crew going to the roof remove the ladder from the window while you had crews working on that floor? I was under the impression once a ladder is in place at window it does not get moved unless it is needed for life safety or rescue. Was this ladder move communicated to crews inside? Please continue to post your videos, they great training tools. Happy Holidays to you, your family and rest of the Newark Fire Company

@antoniobranderas 3 года назад

This was addressed in other comments. Basically an oversight on the crew’s part and noted by the Chief.

No. For the most part this was over aside from a little more overhaul and hosing down the guys that were inside.

@lindahoff7391 3 года назад

Chief, since we could not see, I assume your first line went interior to Division 2 and then backed that up with exterior on the Charlie side? Also, since I see a roll away out front, was this fire related to construction?

@commandvisionfire 3 года назад

Correct. If you pause the video around the 4:05 mark you will see the door on the Charlie side. Behind that door are the stairs that lead to the upstairs apartment. Based on the amount of smoke showing from the Bravo Division 2 window I wanted that upstairs apartment to be our priority. If there were any victims up there we have very little time to get them out. As far as the cause of the fire, it appears that the fire started on the outside of the building, but is undetermined.

@aportman58 2 года назад

Great job NFD...I love seeing a commander not afraid to coordinate using an exterior line in conjunction with an interior fire attack! I get so irritated seeing exterior fires continue burn and extend into attic and remainder of structure because interior operations are occurring. So great job on this decision!

@brockbrooks3601 3 года назад

Maybe you have already answered this, I don't know. Is calling an investigator part of your SOP/SOG?

@commandvisionfire 3 года назад

Yes. If this was a smaller fire such as room and contents, we would try to handle the investigation at the company level. For larger fires we call in our investigators.

What does the reference to division of a working fire that is used in this video mean?

@justie1220 Год назад

Division = Floor. Division 1 is first floor, division 2 is 2nd floor etc

@cleightontourtellotte284 3 года назад

Great command and control of resources. Department appears to have good teamwork - got the job done efficiently. My one observation and comment is the ground ladder on Side A. Good initial placement for Division 2 egress in emergency, then roof crew moved it to access the roof’ and then never replaced it. Should never move a ladder placed for emergency egress while crews are in the building. Ladder company should have placed another ladder for roof access.
