FASTeam to Briarcliff for Fully Involved House Fire
By CFD Reporter
August 29, 2015
A fully involved house fire in Briarcliff Manor sent the Croton-on-Hudson FD into action around 4:10 AM this Saturday.
On the "10-75" or "Working Fire" assignment, Croton Fire was dispatched as the Firefighter Assist & Search Team. Responding to this request were Car 2083 (Asst. Chief Colombo) and Engine 119.
On scene, our crew conducted periodic size-ups of the fire conditions and monitored both the structural stability and the location of firefighters - from Briarcliff, Ossining and Millwood - working to bring the blaze under control.
With the fire knocked down and the situation under control, the Croton units returned to service around 6:30 AM.
The fire, which occurred in a vacant home, remains under investigation.
