In the past few days we have shown you a car that almost drove through a fireground in Bellingham, Washington and a train that took out a supply line in Indianapolis, Indiana. At least the engineer had an excuse. But what can you say about the driver of this car during a two-alarm fire at the Bedtime Inn motel in West Ocean City, Maryland Monday afternoon?
Let’s see. Lot’s of smoke. Big red fire trucks. Big yellow hose. Yes, I am sure that’s where they want me to drive my car..
A two-alarm motel fire shut down beach traffic going into Ocean City on Monday afternoon.
Ocean City firefighters responded to a reported fire at the Bedtime Inn at 12:38 p.m. At the scene, smoke was pouring from the building and no flames were apparent. Route 50 in both directions was shut down as emergency responders arrived at the scene.
The initial report was of a fire in one unit with smoke showing. Firefighters were concerned it would spread across the roof, said Steve Price, a spokesman for the Ocean City Fire Department. To that end, firefighters cut a hole in the roof, but found only smoke inside.
