Heavy Fire Upon Arrival Of North Wash

April 9, 2009 ~ Around 0230 North Washington and Thornton Fire Departments were alerted to a possible structure fire at 73rd and Washington. The reporting party reported a small flame coming from the building with lots of smoke. Firefighters arrived at 1327 E 73rd to find heavy fire conditions and asked for a full staff page. The fire was fueled by a large fire load of stored vehicles, furniture etc. Crews had a difficult time gaining accesses to the metal building but quickly cut multiple accesses points for fire attack. Investigations started after daybreak. Mike Melton Photos, View the full gallery here.
