4 Firefighters Injured - Portland 4-1-13

[Guest]

At 1657 a box was transmitted for a commercial fire  at 5762 SE 82nd Ave.

E11, 25, 29 7, T25, 7 C3 & C4 responded. Rehab 12 was dispatched later.


The fire was in a wood frame building housing a barber shop. During the fire, the 2nd floor flashed over and fire pushed down into the first floor where crews were operating. There were four firefighter injuries at this fire. One was treated at the hospital for cuts to a knee and three others had minor injuries, one with a burn to the side of his face.



Thanks to Portland Police Sgt. Anderson for these first two photos he took with his cell phone before I arrived.
















Lt. Ripley, Eng. 7, checks Chris Fukai, Truck 7 for burns to his face.
