Church Fire

By Chief Officer Jerry Dorsey Jr
July 3, 2011

Severe thunderstorms rolled through the area in the early morning hours of Sunday July 3rd, bringing several working incidents in company 15's first due. While units were battling the fire on Heatherwood Court, ECC alerted units for Structure 15-21 for the odor of smoke in a house on Autumn Crest Drive. The call was handled by CCE12, MCE713, HE41, HCET44, CCM18, and BAT902. No fire was found at that location. Just minutes after the structure was dispatched, Box 15-20 was dispatched for the church on fire in the 5100 block of Woodville Road. Heatherwood Court command quickly scaled back the assignment and released units to responded to the other calls. First arriving CCET14 went on the scene on at the Marvin Chapel on Woodville Road with fire showing from the roof. CCET14 assumed the command and requested the tanker task force. E172, T17, E251, and ET254 were all released from the Heatherwood Court call and responded to the Church Fire. Multiple lines were stretched on the interior and exterior to extinguish the attic fire. The second alarm was requested and shortly thereafter Chief 3(Dorsey) arrived and assumed the command. Units operated for several hours extinguishing the fire and all units cleared by 0800 hours.

Units: E-31, E-311, E-331, C-3, C-3-2
