7/15/05 Early Morning double Car Fire

Around 5am this morning, Station 43 was toned out to a car fire on Route 209 in the Monroe Plaza in Brodheadsville . First on scene 43-S-1 reported 2 cars fully involved with a small coffee shop about 50 feet away. (Which by the way did not provide us with any refreshments) The crew on 43-1-2 made a quick knock down on the fire, good job by Nick Caprioli, Frank Tatusko and a green horn to be named later, John McKeever was on the pump.. 43-2-5 driven by Fran Weiss provided water supply and 43-1-1 arrived after their long journey and assisted with mop up. It appears the driver of the Blazer hit a mattress on the road which got stuck under his truck and caught fire. In order to protect others property he parked right next to the one other car that was in the lot which is also a total loss.






Here we see our Chief Brian Snyder actually doing work:


Nice response by all:


Here is some of the crew:


"Tatoo Dave" making sure all the hot spots are out.
