It's been a busy month for the Oak Ridge Fire Department! Earlier this month, Engines 2, 3, 1, Tower 20, Rescue 30, and the Battalion Chief responded to a reported structure fire on Tacoma Road. Engine 2 and Tower 20 arrived first on scene and were met by a resident of the involved 4-unit apartment building.

The resident led firefighters to a back porch area where a box of discarded materials, including hot charcoal briquettes, had burned against the building. A small area of siding burned, but luckily, the fire did not spread further. The burned material was removed and extinguished, and firefighters ensured there was no further fire extension.

The closest water supply for Engine 2 was blocked by a truck parked in front of the fire hydrant. ๐—ฃ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—ผ๐—ฏ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐˜ ๐—ฎ ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐˜†๐—ฑ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜!
