NewsWorking’s pictures from the fire

This is video from Bill Rohrer at NewsWorking of a house fire today in Whitehall, Pennsylvania.

From Bill’s description with the video:

Firefighters were summoned to 820 4th Street around 3:35 AM for a dwelling fire. Engines 1, 2, 12, 6 Truck and Rescue 8 were dispatched. Chief 35 (Benner) arrived and reported a working fire in a 1-story single-family-dwelling and special-called Squrt 3.

Engine 1 (3611) arrived with 3 members and stretched a 2.5 inch blitz line to the ‘Bravo’ side to protect the exposure. The crew also used the deck gun through the front window to darken down the fire until Engine 2 (3712) arrived with its members to stretch a hand line from Engine 1 through the front door.

Engine 2 also supplied Engine 1 from the hydrant and 4th and Chestnut Streets. Once the first engine darkened down the fire with the blitz, they stretched a hand line to the rear and into the basement. Members from Truck 6 went to the roof and cut a vent hole above the fire.
A fourth hand line was stretched from Engine 1 to douse some fire on the exterior of the dwelling.
