3 Houses Burn in Portland 5-28-14
#1
At 0221 Portland transmitted a box for a house fire at 14932 NE Graham St.

The assignment was E30, E31, E12, Gresham E74, Trucks 2 & 7, C3 & C4.

As E30 approached they reported a header and fire showing. On arrival, they

reported a house fully involved. When C3 arrived he ordered one more engine

and E7 was dispatched. When they observed extension to homes on both sides of the fire, a 2nd alarm was transmitted, bringing E28, E19, E29, Truck 25, Squad 1, C103 & C405, the Safety Chief.

 

Neighbors reported the house was empty because the occupants had moved out about a week ago.

Wow, I didn't see it until you pointed it out. Good eyes!  I'm looking at other images and it seems to be at higher zoom levels.

I just got it back from repair for the LCD that was broken when it fell off the seat of Truck 7. Perhaps one of the lens elements cracked at the same time. I'll do some more tests but it doesn't look good. Thanks for the heads up.
