Phoenix Fire Scenes 11/14-11/22/14

[Guest]

Phoenix is the only department I know of that staffs a PIO 24/7 out of a firehouse.  PI3 is housed at Station 61 and staffed by a Public Information Captain.  PI3 gets toned on just about anything decent but many of the calls are handled in the office via email and phone calls.  I rode along with PI3 for a shift and we only rolled out on about half the calls toned.  The city is simply too big to make it on scene of calls only lasting 20-30 minutes.
