On Monday at 2:36 PM, KVFD was dispatched to the first block of Newport Avenue in Pomeroy Village for a House fire. The initial caller reported that they were seeing sparks coming from an outlet with smoke showing in a bedroom. Upon arrival of Ladder 8, crews reported smoke coming from the roof and an active bedroom fire inside. Lieutenant 8 (Tribbett) on Engine 8-1 established "Newport Command". Crews inside reported an active bedroom fire and crews were in-service. Ladder 8's crew performed the search as Engine 31-1's crew stretched a 1 3/4 line to the front door and aussumed first in Engine Company responsibilities. Chief 8 (Cazillo) arrived on-scene and took the "Newport Command" with all crews working. PECO was notified to respond. Chief Cazillo reported that the fire was under control at 3:02 PM. Belfor was requested for the board up. Thanks to all the responders who turned out on the Memorial Day Holiday. All photos by Career FF/EMT Dill of Modena Fire Co. |
