Hollywood House Fire

Working House Fire On Hollywood.

Parma Engine Companies 1, 2, 3, 5 and Parma Hts. Ladder Co. operated at a working house fire on Hollywood around 1:30pm. No one was home at the time of the fire, it was reported by neighbors. In this photo, a water supply has already been established, a second hose line is being stretched to back up the first line already working inside the home. A crew is headed to the roof to perform vertical ventilation and other crews are assembling for anticipated actions. Having the proper of amount of manpower on the scene allows for multiple functions to be accomplished simultaneously early in the incident. This results in less property damage and a safer and more effective operation.
