January
15, 2009 - At 2123 hours, Units with the 1st
Battalion were alerted to the 1800 block of H
Street, NE for smoke. E27 arrived on side Charlie
and found a two story row with smoke showing
bringing the Working Fire Dispatch. E27 forced entry
to the basement door and was met by heavy fire with
extension to the first and second floors of the fire
building and the rear porch of the Delta exposure. A
second alarm was alerted and put in staging as E27
got a knock on the bulk of the fire. The fire was
placed under control in 20 minutes and the Box was
later held to two and two. E27 operated for three
hours in freezing temperatures. A Lieutenant and a
Private were injured and transported. Video courtesy
