Truck 16 is coming to third floor to help ventilation on room 308.

At this point we have knocked down the fire, it looks like a bathroom part, and we slowed down the fire.

If I'm just standing correctly, you went to the third floor, hope to locate the fire apartment and you're searching, make sure there's no injured parties or anyone on the counter.

That's correct.
02:11
I see, repeat it, traffic.

We got a loud-in-law and sound.
02:15
I mean, repeat it.
02:18

We do have a heat spot in one of the walls we're opening it up.
05:10
Both adjacent apartments feel safe in 310 to clear no fire extension.
05:20
We start in the 308, but spot on one of the walls that you're going to investigate, 306, 310,
05:29
and charge the stations coming up to assist with smoke evap.
05:34
