The fire first started on the eighth floor and climbed up the building. Ninth floor workers were trapped because they were not alerted about the fire and had little time to escape. They tried to use the elevator as many times as they possibly could, but the elevators stopped operating. Clotilde Terranova had no idea that she could have survived the fire. They say she ran from window to window, and before anyone could stop her, she jumped out. She saw the fire blazing up from the ninth floor and was so frightened and acted in the

Ms. Maudie’s heroic neighbors such as Mr.Finch and Mr. Avery started taking out some of her valuable furniture from the burning house while the fire department arrived. The fire department sent 3 fire trucks over, 2 of which came from another town. Unfortunately, some of the equipment malfunctioned and they also came late, so they weren’t able to save the house, but they kept it from spreading to the other houses. Ms. Maudie’s tin roof helped put out the fire when her

The roaring fire ripped through Sherwood one August afternoon and steadily continued until the next morning. The dry grass and blazing heat were several factors that contributed to this catastrophe. There was physical damage from the surrounding wildlife. The heat from the blaze was like a Sea of Flames. The fire took it’s toll on the nearby companies. Officials report that one firefighter was injured when the train tracks collapsed. Another firefighter had to saw his leg out and he went to the hospital. The story behind what happened and who did it is still a big catechism. They have an idea that it had something to do with a man and 3 minors.

Later a fire truck appeared, delayed by the icy conditions. When the men attached its hose to a hydrant, the hose burst and water shot up, tinkling down on the pavement. By the time the Abbottsville fire truck arrived, the fire was beginning to spread. There were no other hydrants nearby, so men resorted to using hand extinguishers and blankets to suppress the fire. Another fire truck was brought in because the fire had grown to

Prior to the structure fire occurring we would be dispatched to a trash can fire or dumpster fire. This information was conveyed to the fire marshal, who then set up patrols and in turn coordinated with the police department. Soon after this we would keep watch during our responses for anyone on the road when we would be dispatched to fires. Most of the fires occurred between midnight and three in the morning. Times you would not expect to see too many persons on the street. After several months and several suspects questioned, the fires stopped. Recognizing this pattern and relaying the information started the slow process of mitigating the problem, so far fires in the area have stopped.

For years if not decades, firefighters have responded to a reported structure fire that turned out to be a fully involved single room. This fire scenario requires a core set of fire tactics and skills to control and extinguished the fire, but is it this simple? Perhaps twenty years it may have been, but new dangers are lurking in every scenario and may have detrimental outcomes for unsuspecting and unaware firefighters and victims. The National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) agency along with the Underwriters Laboratory (UL) have been conducting research to understand fire behavior and fire dynamics. This research is providing firefighters with new information about how and why

William Lee, a neighbor a block away, saw the fire and ran to Bruno Goll’s drugstore to turn in the fire alarm. Bruno Goll refused to turn in the alarm because he said the fire truck had already gone past. So instead of arguing, Lee went home to his family. At the courthouse the lookout on duty saw smoke, but thought nothing of it, thinking it was just Saturday's fire and there was no reason to be alarmed. Then he looked up and noticed it was a different fire and had his assistant strike the Box 342 for the fire department. Soon fire trucks were at the scene and attempted to put out the fire. The fire department’s Chief Marshal, Robert A. Williams got the engines to circle the fire to contain it. They got as close to the fire as they could until their arm hair was being burned and their
