Ride along with Rescue 21 and Engine 31 as they respond to a house fire this past Saturday morning in Fair Oaks, and watch as ventilation, search, and an aggressive fire attack come together in a coordinated effort to search for victims, remove heat and toxic smoke, and extinguish the fire.
At approximately 6:20 a.m., Metro Fire crews were dispatched to the 5100 block of Primrose Drive. Firefighters arrived to find a well-involved home with flames coming through the roof.
Crews launched an aggressive fire attack while simultaneously conducting a primary search to confirm no one was inside. The home sustained major damage, and Metro Fire’s Investigation Team is working to determine the cause.
Working smoke alarms save lives. Install smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of your home. Test them monthly and replace alarms that are 10 years old.
