Harts Avenue [4-10-14]
Around 20:15 hours on the night of April 10th the Roosevelt Fire Department was dispatched to a report of rubbish burning next to a home. Responding units were given the intersection of Washington and Harts Avenues. When the first units arrived on scene they found a large pile of rubbish burning next to 32 Harts Avenue. Due to the close proximity of the fire to the residence and the amount of contents burning Roosevelt Chief of Department Derrick Fennell transmitted a signal 32 [general alarm / re-alert for manpower]. Roosevelt Engine 732 was the first engine company to arrive on scene and stretched two lines with at least one going into operation. Roosevelt Ladder 735 was the first truck company on scene and entered the home to ensure there was no extension. Firefighters were able to contain the fire to the pile of rubbish and the siding of the home. No injuries were reported and no mutual aid was needed. The scene was placed under control approximately 20 minutes into the operation. The cause of the fire remained under investigation. All fire department units were under the command of Roosevelt Chief of Department Derrick Fennell [7300].
