Late Sunday evening Northampton County box was transmitted for 364 Hemlock Lane for a house fire. On arrival crews found heavy fire from the rear of this large 6,000 square foot home in Lower Nazareth Township. A second alarm was transmitted.
Large hand lines were deployed and an exterior attack commenced. After the fire was darkened down, firefighters went inside to battle the flames. Shortly after I started filming, a mayday went out for two firefighters down inside. The Rapid Intervention Team went to work to rescue the firefighters. They were brought out on side 3 (Charlie). EMS transported 3 firefighters to an area hospital for treatment.
Palmer Township supplied two ladder companies along with Hanover Township Ladder 15.

I will never understand if your going to break a window take the entire window including the sash it makes it way easier for FF bailout or victim removal looked like they caught good work.

The red lighting on the ladders has got to be way better for night vision.

What’s with the gentle artistic way that Chief is breaking that window? BREAK THAT M.EFFER AND MOVE ON!

Why are they breaking windows? Dosent seem to be anything to ventilate.

@newsworking Жыл бұрын

Taking the windows out as a precautionary in case firefighters had to bail out if conditions inside deteriorate, is my guess.

@@newsworking Horizontal ventilation helps to keep the fire within that room. Cheaper to replace glass than more of the structure.
