At 04:48 Portland responded to a house fire at 3950 NE 136th Ave.

Response was E30, E12, E7, Gresham E74, Trucks 2 and 7, C3 & C4.

Truck 2, first to arrive, reported light smoke showing from the eaves.

When the roof was opened, the scene changed drastically as you can

see in the first photo.

The roof shots are awesome. Any word on the wheel incident.. The piece seemed fairly new .

It was caused by a casting defect. There is a forward camera somewhere on the rig and it caught the whole thing. When the wheel broke off it rolled along beside the rig for a considerable distance, nearly hitting a truck, before it fell over. Then the camera shows two members lifting it upright and rolling it out of the way.

All our other recent Pierce's were checked within a few hours and found to be OK.

It was still within the warranty period.
