Well, got up this am at work, made my coffee and sat down in the firefighter's room. Low and behold...... New Haven was burning again!!! So figuring I would miss it on my trek from Foxwoods (MPFD) to Ansonia, I would not see it, thinking it would be out. Boy was I wrong, by the time I got into the Branford / East Haven area about 7:30, I could see the header still. Needless to say I took a swing over there. Here is what I got off my cell. This was about 2 hours into it at the third alarm level.

On the bridge comming from Grand Avenue to E. Grand Avenue. Engine 17 (first due) is located on E. Grand Ave, two blocks away up the hill. There were reports people ran to the firehouse and gave the company a verbal alarm.

Closer Shot. This is a swing bridge I was one over the Quinnipiac River. It connects Fair Haven to Fair Haven Heights.

Truck 2 was in the back of the building. Hopefully Sage will post some more.
