HOUSE FIRE ON WILLOWBROOK HEIGHTS K/D QUICKLY - 3/2/14 (GROUP 4)

On March 2, 2014 firefighters were dispatched for a garbage can on fire outside the residence. 3213 responds within 2 minutes of dispatch with an 4 man crew. Enroute, 3213 gets an update from 911 that the fire is extending into the residence. 3213 is on scene in 3 minutes, makes their own hydrant, and stretches a line into the residence and knocks the fire down. Because of current staffing levels there was no delay in fire suppression (stretching the line into the residence) and securing a positive water supply.
