Copy. Great.
00:01
Interior fire attack.
00:03
I see.
00:09
I see from the truck.
00:13
Go ahead.
00:15
Yeah,
00:16
we are starting to get some smoke production off of the exposure on the Delta side. We've got lazy smoke coming from the gable side vent and also an eyeball right up top. We're going to go ahead and go top side on the exposure and see what we've got up there.
00:35
That exposure,
00:37
can we confirm everybody's out?
00:43
We'll go ahead and peek in, make an entry. We're having some tough time making entry at this point.
00:50
All right, I won't have you guys make entry. If you're better served doing VAN, I'm going to make you Venn. I'll make you Venn.
01:02
I copy. Cuming in Venn Group.
01:07
Medic Engine 9.
01:10
I see.
01:12
If you can come on in back.
01:21
If you can come on in, it's starting to get bottleneck with rigs down here.
01:27
I'd like you to go grab a 360, tie in with Vangroup,
01:33
and get eyes on that exposure.
01:36
And let me know what we need over there if we're going to need any sort of lines to protect that exposure.
01:42
And also if you can make access for a search, I need to make sure everybody's out.
01:49
Cutting that will take the exposure.
01:52
Start working our way in.
01:58
Copy that. I can't see the building from here. So it sounds like it's a delta-side exposure.
02:03
And then also let me know if you need additional resources.
02:10
I see you from here, you see your firetops.
02:14
We're going to put this one of the fireless back.
02:16
We're fine. We're going to go over engine one.
02:24
Interior fire attack, I copy that.
02:26
Hey, heads up, sounds like it's pretty well involved.
02:28
Just do your best.
02:30
If entry is not going to work,
02:33
then just do what you can from the outside. We're going to continue to transition.
02:41
Hi, copies. We're not going to get down pretty good, Chief.
02:44
We are going to make an effective interior wire up at the good point.
02:50
Copy that. Do you need any additional resources?
02:56
I'm good for now, but I may need a second in-hill company.
03:01
Give me just a second and second.
03:08
Hi, Copy.
03:18
I'm turning to Titan 704.
03:20
Two telling 704.
03:28
I'm on scene with the first alarm.
03:32
We do have a working fire.
03:34
It's going to be a two-story duplex,
03:38
pretty heavy fire.
03:40
We are in attack mode.
03:43
If you can start both utility companies, please.
03:46
Also, uh,
03:50
let's just go ahead and start a second alarm.
03:54
Hi, copy. Your clock is now at 10.
04:00
Copy things all work on up for.
04:06
Rick, I see.
04:10
Go for Rick.
04:14
And you can grab a par.
04:21
I have a bar, and then also the exposure is clear. I just check it.
04:30
Copy that. Both clear,
04:33
primary, secondary, and then we don't have any fire involvement.
04:37
Clear for both.
04:40
That's affirmative as is now in the living place.
04:45
Copy that. I've got nines coming to work on that exposure. Are we going to need them there?
04:54
That's affirmative. I keep them just so we can make sure there's nothing in the attic yet.
05:02
I copy that.
05:03
Nine's is walking down now. If you can just face to face with them, just let them know what you did.
05:08
Also,
05:10
I assigned it to 261. I'm not sure if they had a chance, but can you also grab utilities?
05:31
Every thanks.
05:43

06:05
Go ahead, Vann.
06:10
Have we got a crew that's made entry yet on that snortled exposure?
06:15
We do have a decent amount of smokewood rushing come up with survival then.
06:19
Now holding a lot of heat, but we might want to check in the swing on the defense Delta exposure.
06:27
I got me that. It sounds like Rick has checked it, and it's clear for...
06:34
We don't have any involvement yet, but I've got Medicin Gen 9 coming now.
06:39
They're going to be the exposure group.
06:44
Well, I can't copy. I don't want to open any of it up until we've got people in there. What are you smoking?
06:53
I copy that.
06:56
Medicines and 9 exposures, I see.
06:59
Gover exposure.
07:02
If you can just tie in with the truck, they're starting to get some smoke in that exposure, it sounds like.
07:31
ComCenter copies. Did you want to start a move up?
07:36
I'm going to start a move up? I'm going to move here.
07:40
Comcenter copies.
07:44

07:45
between West Wayne Avenue and No Cross Street.
07:52
But I have one of them in the wheelchair ramps that got up and jail for second story.
07:58
So we're going to continue an aggressive primary search.
08:03
We're going to be out of air soon. Send me a additional area to take me.
08:10
I copy that. Yeah, continue to search.
08:15
That primary is a high priority.
08:20
Also, I've got a second alarm, time in and I'll give you more resources.
08:29
All right, coming from this is up.
08:32
Again, if it's possible, we would benefit from some ventilation.
08:36
We're just got to get some smoke out of here.
08:48
Event from exposure.
08:50
Can give you.
08:59
Event, firm exposure.

09:22
No fire.
09:28
Copy that. Yeah,
09:31
