The first units on proverb

 The first units on the scene found an electrical fire where the main power comes into the building. The fire looked to be contained right there.

 We called him (fire marshal) in immediately on the scene. He lives here locally. His investigation indicates it appears to be accidental fire. Appeared to be an electrical fire.

 We received a call of a lightning strike, fire units responded to the scene. When we arrived on the scene, there was heavy fire in the attic. There were two occupants who were home at the time. They were able to escape unharmed.

 Because it was fully involved, we did defensive operations and fought the fire from the outside. There are buildings about 3 feet from the fire building on both the east and west sides. So, our main focus was to contain the fire to the original building.

 The problems we had going in had to do with the fact that the building was old and we had to put in new systems - mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire life safety. Trying to fit that back in and trying to get the Fire Department to sign off was hard.

 It was of electrical origin. It started at a computer workstation. It's a tragic situation, but it was ruled an accidental, electrical fire. The fire marshal was able to conclusively locate where in the class it was started.

 The first fire was like a warning. So we got most of our important equipment out of there. Before this fire, there was hope we might go back to that building. Now, there is no hope. A fireman took me through the building to look at our space. Those marble steps in the front? Looked like a waterfall.

 I looked to my left and saw this huge fire raging. I looked back into the room and screamed, 'Oh my God, there's a fire! The boat is on fire!

 We don't know what type of ammunition was exploding. Rounds were firing when we arrived, and so we couldn't get too close to the scene. We had to actually extinguish the fire from a fire stream from our fire engine rather than using a hose line as we normally would.

 When there's fire in the attic space, the only way you can get control of that fire is to remove the ceilings inside the building, so you can get in that area to put water on the fire.

 The volume of fire we had when we get here -- I suspect that was the case. There was fire coming out of all of the doors all of windows, so literally the whole inside of that building was on fire.

 We actually laid eighteen hundred feet of water into the fire scene. We had to put two fire trucks in between the hydrant here at the end of Apache and the fire to relay the water in, something that is rarely done in Savannah.

 It's a small, half-acre brush fire. We have six units on the scene right now because we want to attack it aggressively.

 South Middle School is currently up to fire code. The fire department has come in and said it meets all safety standards, but we want to make sure the building meets the fire safety standard in the original building specifications.

 Right now, the fire is contained. The wind has shifted and they've lit a backfire to get the fire burning back on itself.
