Lamar Fire Department VS Shed Fire

On the morning of 04/03/24 at 0750 Lamar Fire was dispatched to South 3rd street in Lamar for a reported shed on fire. While responding the crews were advised that the fire had exposures on multiple sides of the building.

Truck 1 was first due on scene and was placed in the alleyway. Truck 1 reported a fully involved shed on fire and requested Prowers Communications to send a second tone for a working structure fire. Truck 1 requested that Engine 6 lay supply line from a plug to Truck 1. 

Engine 6 was abandoned on the street and crews were assigned to fire attack off Truck 1.  The crews deployed 100 feet of 1.75” hose off Truck 1’s front bumper followed by 200 feet of 1.75” hose from a cross lay. 

Engine 5 and Med 3 arrived on scene and were placed as next out apparatus. 

The fire was contained at 0805 and the crews began mop up. All crews cleared the scene and were returned to service at 0930. 

Units on scene were Truck 1, Engine 6, Engine 5, Med 3, FRU 1, and FRU2.
