August
4, 2009 - At 1230 hours, E27 was alerted for a pole
at Minnesota Avenue and Polk Street, NE. E27 arrived
to find a cement truck that had struck a pole,
knocking it down along with four others. This
brought T17 and BFC2 to assist. The Deanwood Metro
Station along with several area residents lost power
for approximately twelve hours. One heart patient
was transported from a nearby apartment building when
it became too hot. Video and pictures 2, 3 and 4 courtesy of
