ok, for a second, I thought I was loosing my marbles... but, then again, I guess you'd have to HAVE marbles to lose...

I heard one a little while back, it went out as a Structure Fire, and, being Buffalo, it sent 3 Engines, 3 Trucks, the City-wide Rescue 1, The Air Truck, EMS Leiutenant, Battalion Chief, Division Chief, and Fire Marshal.
Well, while en route, they all got cancelled, saying the caller called back; it was a yellow porch-light. How in the hell does one think a porch-light is a fire? The stupidity of people *face-palm*

6 Engines? 1 truck. That's not many. Depends on the structure size though

Depends on what kind/how many apertures are available.

I just found this website. It the Toronto Fire Services CAD page. Right now they've got a 2 Alarm Residential fire, a 3 Alarm Commercial Fire, another Res. Fire that has had units added twice now, a vehicle fire, and several others. I'd suggest bookmarking it, its a good one

There was a call last night of a car going through several yards, and even knocking a screen door off a house. The usual went out, a few cops, and 1 Engine or Quint. EFD was first on scene only to find nothing at the intersection. EPD found the vehicle parked behind auto zone near by. Dispatch asked if AMR was needed in which PD said probably. Didnt catch any further details.

Oh and there was a raid on a house a few nights ago. EPD set up a a parameter and atleast some of the people in the house gave up with out incident. Not sure about the rest.

So I caught this one today:

FE P1,
520 Garrison Road,
Between Conssesion and Albert Street,
Unknown 9-1-1 Investigation,
Pump 1, be advised, Conssesion Road is closed from Bertie to Garrison for the Olympic Torch Relay, please access this call off of Thompson Road..
That made me do a double take lmfao

[Xplorer4x4]

^lol.

This was an old one, dont know exactly which units were dispatched but I believe 6 Engine 6, 6 Rescue 6 and/or 6 Rescue 71(both are Ambulances converted for Dive Rescue), among other possible units were dispatched to Angel Mounds Boat Ramp for a water rescue. Apertures arrived on scene, only to find Coast Guard doing water rescue training. Coast Guard never bothered to notify the department they would be doing exercises in the area.

well just got home. most recent now. Had a vehicle fire on the I 2 nights ago. We beat the FD there by about 8 minutes. as we pulled up in the ambulance the car was fully involved with magnesium clearly burning flames goin 20 feet in the air. later that very night. had an accident with entrapment. beat the FD to the scene again by about 15 minutes this time. I had to bust out the rear window and climb over to get access to my patients before the FD could get there and extricate them. then later that day had a basic sick person call. needless to say im staying pretty busy lol

[emergency4freak]

I haven't had too many calls here in Lincoln. In the middle of the night last night however, there was a 2 vehicle MVC with unknown injuries or trapped. I just dosed right off to bed...i have been on vacation for the past little while so I haven't been scanning too much. needless to say, the day I got back on the 20th, fully involved barn fire in Jordan, involving 2 barns and a trailer!
