structure fire Shady Lane Park Bridgewater twp. United Tower Engine 2
Tanker, and Engine 6 would respond all with light staffing. United 14 (PJhonson)
requested the next due engine and tanker also be dispatched. The tower
arrived to find a well involved house trailer with fire venting from the
roof and out of the front of the structure and the siding was beginning
to melt on the closest exposure structure. United 14 established the
shady lane command. Crews deployed a 2 1/2" line off the tower and
got a quick knock on the fast moving fire. Engine 6 set up water
supply from a pond in the MT view estates. crews remained on scene for
about 2 hours overhauling the structure. We were assisted by an engine
from Springville and a tanker from Elk Lake. There was no one home at
the time of the fire but one family pet did parish. The home is a total
loss and the red cross was called to assist the family. All united units
were available by 13:45 and no injuries were reported.
