Above is Scott Ziegler’s (HPZ1442) latest video from Highland Park, Michigan. It includes a house fire and a fire in a vacant apartment building. Below is more drone video from Harry Arnold (itvdetroit) of the apartment building fire. Here’s what Scott wrote about the fires. Note that Scott has a network news crew riding with him. Normally that would make all fires stop, but not this time:

We were called to a report of a fire on joslyn st around 9pm. Our chief arrived first and called in a four story vacant apartment building going through out, just as we pulled up to a fully involved dwelling fire one street over. We stretched on the dwelling and sent our ladder to the other fire. Our chief called DFD for a box alarm to the apartment building and we handled to dwelling fire with our 4 guys, plus 2 ride alongs who used to work here. We also had a camera crew from ABC nightline riding along with us filming but we have not seen there footage. We made an interior attack on this dwelling and ended up pulling off a great stop. The house next door was a few feet away and we did not want to chase this fire down the block. This was recorded with 2 separate helmet cams. Mine unfortunately had no card in it. Half way through one of the guys with a cam was sent to assist at the apartment building fire. DFD was very helpful. Fire was recorded with a fire cam 1080 from firevideo.net
