In the morning hours during shift change, SSFR was dispatched as mutual aid to PCFD for a working warehouse fire. Engine 129, Engine 121, and Truck 111 made the response. Response view is from Engine 129. Units arrived on scene, and reported to command for assignment. Engine 129 was assigned to the Bravo Side of the structure to work on exposure protection and overhaul. Once complete and confirmed there was no fire extension into the neighboring residence, crews were reassigned to the Delta Side of the structure operating exterior 2 1/2 handlines. Crews were later reassigned to the Alpha Side interior to work on fire extinguishment on the Alpha / Bravo corner where there was active fire in the walls, ceiling, and shingles. The entire assignment was unable to be recorded due to FireCam battery dying. Once the assignment was complete, crews were sent to firefighter rehab and then released from the scene after the fire was marked under control. No injuries were reported on scene.
