By Secretary Mike Cline
October 14, 2019

At ~ 4:22 PM, Westmoreland 911 dispatched Station 20 (Murrysville VFC) for a report of a structure fire at a home on Simmons Circle. Station 20 responded with Truck 20 (6 firefighters including Lieutenant 20), Engine 20 (1 firefighter), with Captain 20 going directly to the scene, and 1 additional firefighter/driver on standby at the station in case Rescue 20 was needed at the scene. Westmoreland 911 also dispatched the following stations to support Station 20: Station 610 (Murrysville Medic One), Station 22 (Export VFC), Station 64 (White Valley VFC), Station 78 (Sardis VFC), and the Murrysville Police. Truck 20 was the first unit on scene, Lieutenant 20 established command, and found no fire or smoke coming from the structure. Command 20 found one of the homeowners was outside of the structure, and found that she had locked herself outside of the house, but her husband was sleeping in an upstairs bedroom, and the stove was in use. The Truck 20 firefighters were able to gain entry into the home, when the sleeping homeowner came to the door, and upon entry the stove was turned off, and there was no evidence of smoke or fire was found. Command 20 cancelled all additional responding units except for Truck 20, Support 6110, and Engine 22-1. Engine 22-1's crew conducted a secondary search of the home, and Station 610 EMS treated the one of the homeowners on scene for cuts caused by broken glass. Command 20 returned all on scene units including Truck 20 to service and station.

Units: Truck 20, Engine 20
 
Mutual Aid: Export VFC (Station 22 - Engine 22-1), White Valley VFC (Station 64 - Engine 64), Sardis VFC (Station 78 - Engine 78), Murrysville Medic One (Station 610), Murrysville Police Department
