This first shot was a jumper rescue..they were just helping the victim down..apparently he was threatening to jump onto the Fisher Freeway....

We arrived just in time to see the last part of the rescue

nothing at all the rest of the day...about 0500 we went to what turned into a 2nd alarm and East Warren and Somerser

fire was in what appeared to be an empty dollar store




Detroit April 21 2013 - Guest - 04-24-2013

pretty much knocked down..none of the 2nd alarm units had arrived yet

going to the roof...see the baloons tied to the posts? There was a murder here and this was a makeshift memorial...the firebombing was apparently retaliation for this event.

kinda neat how the aerial held down the barbed wire




Detroit April 21 2013 - Guest - 04-24-2013

looked good but was actually the result of hydraulic ventilation and PPV
