Busy Super Bowl Sunday for the Volunteers of Company 1

At approximately 4:15pm, Companies 1, 2, and 3 were dispatched as mutual aid to Ramsey for a working house fire. Upon arrival, Ramsey FD was making an aggressive interior attack and had heavy fire on the 1st floor with extension to the 2nd floor and attic. Engine 115’s crew was immediately sent into the building to assist with hose lines and also to open up the ceilings and walls to expose and extinguish the fire.

As Engine 115’s crew worked interior operations, Company 2 stood by as the FAST team, and Company 3’s Air Unit provided SCBA support. Engine 115 operated for about 2 hours before returning to quarters.

Job well done goes out to Ramsey FD who were faced with tough conditions upon arrival.

Later that evening, Companies 1 and 2 responded to the Homewood Suites for an activated fire alarm. After investigating and determining the cause, firefighters ventilated the affected area before returning to quarters.
