AFA TURNS INTO A BUILDING
Date:
12/07/07
In the afternoon hours, the company was dispatched to the 1200 block of Remington Road for the automatic alarm system. As Engine 21’s crew made their way up the driveway to meet up with our local police officer, an odor of something burning was detected. Crews made a visual inspection through the windows and observed a smoke condition inside. Crews from Engine and Ladder 21 forced entry into the home, where they found a haze of smoke throughout. Engineer 21-2 (Millay) established the command and requested a second company be dispatched, bringing Station 26 (Narberth). An intense search inside the home eventually found the culprit, an elevator motor. Crews secured the motor and ventilated the smoke.
