At about 3:15am Engine 71 was dispatched to a single car MVA at the request of police. While enroute dispatch came on the air and updated Engine 71with information from police that the patient was down a 50' down embankment inside a rock quarry. Engine 71 arrived a couple minutes later and assessed the situation and asked for the Technical Rescue Team. Come to find out the patient hit a telephone phone pole about 500' down the road and ran on foot from the neighbors. He jumped a fence ran about 10' and fell into the pit at the quarry.

While in town for the Region 6 IFBA meeting hosted by the Twin Cities Extra Alarm Association, I caught this house fire in Plymouth, MN.

 

The fire was caused by a lightning strike. Companies arrived to find fire showing from the attic. An interior attack was initiated, but crews were withdrawn to allow the use of ladder pipe. After the build of the fire was knocked down from the exterior, crews re-entered the structure to finish extinguishment with hand lines.   

 

Several departments assisted Plymouth including Brooklyn Center, Robbinsdale, Rogers, Golden Valley and Maple Grove.

 

I arrived late, but did get some nice candids and rig shots. 

 

I was nice to get back to the Twin Cities for a long weekend. The EAA did a fantastic job hosting the IFBA regional meeting which included a tour of the Rosenbauer (General) plant in Wyoming. Sorry, but no pictures to share from that portion of the trip...

At 1634 Engine 19 and Truck 7 were dispatched to a rollover accident on Stark St. at I-205.

On arrival, Truck 7 reported a pickup truck over the guard rail and the driver pinned in. Engine 7

was dispatched when the call was upgraded to a pin-in and C3 took command of the incident.

Truck 7 reported the driver was conscious and alert.


From the time of dispatch until the victim was removed was 18 minutes.



In most pin-ins the roof is removed to gain access to the victims, but in this case that was not possible, which made the removal more difficult. Before any work could start the truck had to be stabilized. Struts were placed at both ends of the truck and a third placed on the far side.


 




Then the doors were cut off



Then they had to pull the door and hold it in place.


 




Removing the driver.







The next two photos show the placement of the struts.


 

Decided to post a variety of pictures I've taken over the years.  I'm a 'shots of opportunity' kind of guy, don't get a lot of things moved around and don't get a lot of information off of the trucks; you've been warned.  

 

This will mainly be a mixture of apparatus from VA and WV.  A lot of stuff taken at Singers/Atlantic and Apple Blossom.

 

Questions or comments welcome.
