10-minute struggle in Portland 6-14-13

During a quiet period between two 2nd alarm fires and a 3rd alarm fire, Engine 7 was dispatched to a call for a person passed out in a car.

For several minutes he would only respond with loud noises and he finally tumbled out onto the street, struggling. Then it took many people and two injections to finally subdue him ten minutes later (from the EXIF). We heard he was a drug dealer sampling his goods.

The sad reality is that most major urban departments that run a tiered response system will see more of these type of calls than that big 3 alarm fire call. 

What is nice to see is strength in numbers from responding agencies when dealing with scumbags like this that abuse themselves and the system.

Exactly. Thanks for your comment. I ride with station 7, Portlands busiest, for a few hours nearly every day and I hit an actual fire about once a month.

This should be example A we show to kids about drug use.  Nice Job Dick.  Had a few of these calls myself, never enough hands.
