Well my photos are not as Nearly as good as Scotts But I have a Couple Different Angles I can post here.

 

As Scott Said this Started as a Fire Alarm Initial Assignment Engine 19, 7, Ladder 3, Chief 3.   Engine 19 Located just down the Road arrived with Heavy smoke showing, and Requested the Full Assignment, bringing Engine 11, Ladder 11, Rescue 9, Chief 5, Deputy, Mobile Command, and Salvage to the Scene. Engine 19 Made Entry and Had High Heat conditions but could not located the Fire, the kept calling for ladder crews to vent to roof and front of the structure but just as Ladder 11 was starting to enter the roof all crews were pulled out of the structure and off of the roof and into Defensive strategy. a 2-2 Alarm was sounded brining Engine 1,5, Ladder 2. and Sending Chief 1 Downtown to the Dispatch Center. I left for the scene right as crews were pulled out. and Fire began to self ventilate just as I was getting off of the highway.
