Helmet-cam video from Newtown, PA fire in law office

Previous coverage of this fire

The Fire Critic Rhett Fleitz found some more video from the fire Monday in a Newtown, Pennsylvania (Bucks County) single-family dwelling that was converted into a law office. This helmet-cam video is from cstoner15. Here’s the description with the clip:

Newtown Emergency Services Department (Engine-55-1) arrived to find a 2.5 story S/F/D that was converted into a business with smoke showing and went in service with an 1 3/4 attack line. Chief 252 arrived and step up command. About 7 minutes into the call command filled out the box bringing engine 80, engine 8 and ladder 21 to the scene. We arrived on Rescue-45 about 12-13 minutes into the fire.

Shortly after arriving on scene the building was evacuated. Crews knocked the fire from the outside then entered for another attack. My helmet cam picks up as we are making our way up to the attic. This was a balloon frame construction building. As always be respectful with all comments.
