Motel Fire Video in Shelburne, VT 03/08/06

2 posts in this topic

I recently became a member of the Shelburne Fire Dept just outside of Burlington, VT. On March 8, 2006 the Shelburne Fire Department was called to a working fire in the end unit of the Yankee Doodle Motel, a single-story, wood-frame structure very typical of 1940-1960 roadside motels. Prior to the footage, the doors and windows of the motel were closed. The fire was venting smoke from the attic, but it had not actively self-ventilated through the roof. The scene we've clipped and linked to the webpage was taken by a video camera in a Shelburne Police cruiser & the sounds in the background are from the radios in the cruiser. You'll see the two Shelburne firefighters prepare to enter the structure and take a defensive position as they force the door. Experienced firefighters can predict what happened next. GREAT VIDEO!....go to the website and click on VIDEOS.
