Apartment Fire in Portland 6-15-2015

[Guest]

At 1501 a box was transmitted for an apartment fire at 14021 SE Stark St.

Response was E7, 30,31,19, T2, T25 R7, C3, C2.

Truck 7, normally first due, was rescuing a 91 year old woman who had fallen down a narrow stairway.

I arrived right behind Rescue 7 and found a 2-story apartment building with

a porch on fire and fire extending into the apartment and the attic.


An 1-3/4 line from Engine 7 quickly knocked down the fire on the porch while another line was extended into the apartment.

Truck 2 with its crew of Trainees arrived to ladder the building.



Engine 31 working on the porch.





The Trainees, who graduated yesterday, went to the roof to ventilate.






When they opened the roof, the Red Devil popped out !
