JUMP TO FILE #020714113

scenario.

Numerous hose lines had to be deployed. In conjunction with that, firefighters had to open the walls and ceilings. They were forced to fight through layers of sheetrock and plaster to expose and extinguish the fast moving fire.

While fire suppression efforts were being executed, Lt, Darren Eberhart was operating on the second floor when suddenly the ceiling collapsed on top of him. Ex Capt Steve Kistela and Firefighter Colin Ahrens assisted Lt. Eberhart to a second floor window. He was placed on a one story set back in the rear of the house.
