Being a career firefighter (captain) and have seen many major fires and industrial explosions I will have to say it has been a long time since seeing such an impressive fire! Great job LAFD fighting and managing this fire having to deal with water supplies and homeless encampment around the fire!!! OnScene TV, all I can say is incredible video capture of this fire! I actually felt like I was on the front seat watching this fire! I kept wanting to give incident command orders even though I know they were kicking butt giving direction to incoming resources :)

Check out this fire in LA from 8 years ago! A huge apartment complex under construction was set on fire. The fire was so big and hot, that stuff was spontaneously combusting across the 8 lane freeway and in nearby buildings computers and cubicles were melting. Here is part 1 and there's a part 2. It's quite impressive! ua-cam.com/video/A0WunnKcbuc/v-deo.htmlsi=hwLrjTm4qvoH2h7j
Prayers going up for these firefighters, police, EMS, and all other personnel who have been dealing with this nightmare (and everyone affected by it). Thank you for your service. And thank you for recording it all so well.
How do you allow a pallet yard of that size underneath a critical piece of infrastructure with homeless camps? No accumulation of fuels like this should ever be allowed under an elevated freeway. Ever. This is a repeat of the downtown Atlanta or the Great Philly Tire Fire.
they're homeless because they are addicts that don't want to work. there's not problem with a person being an addict if they work for their addiction, but these people would rather be out on the street than work a job that will keep a roof over their head which they can do their business in private. instead they rather rot on the streets and the state provides them the supplies to all they have to do is find money for their drugs and they're set. I've bought these people food at mcdonalds when I handed them the food they asked me for the receipt and asked the guy why do they want the receipt and he told me in case he needed to go in for a refill. I said ok gave it to him walked to my car and then I went back in to use the restroom before I took off. the guy was inside asking for a refund so he can use the money for drugs. now when I buy it I don't give them the receipt you either eat the food or throw it away. they don't eat it and they don't throw it away they go and sell the food to another person for a few bucks. prop 47 needs to be reversed and we can go back to the cops arresting them and putting them in rehab. they also don't want to live in shelters or homeless housing because they aren't allowed to do their drugs.
Exactly, you would think the stupid State departments would of learned from the catastrophic fire in atlanta under the interstate. This should be enforced everywhere and hopefully this company has to pay for this destruction.
I work for dot in a different state.. I can pretty much tell that the bridge is going to need extensive repairs.. Glad to see the dog was saved.. Major props to all the firefighters on seen!!
How long do you think it’ll take Caltran to fix this major overpass / highway? Obviously you won’t know exactly but from you professional opinion, how long?
Silly question. Why is a pallet company allowed to build/rebuild and store pallets under a freeway? I'm just me, and no way would I have allowed that. Just saying.
This is only one of probably hundreds of fires the LAFD has had to respond to as a result of the homeless in the area. As someone who drives over this stretch of freeway I can tell you I see atleast one fire a day on my drive back home. I say blame it on the homeless. The fire won't start itself.
I moved back from New Mexico and I passed through that area as I was exiting the Alameda exit and saw all that s**t piled up and saids to myself it's a recipe for a big huge fire 44 days ago and I am nobody smdh
I am not a structural engineer, but there is no way those bridges are worth anything after all that fire underneath them. When I was a Firefighter back in the day, we were called to a mutual aid where it was a sawmill with several adjacent buildings on fire and our first thought was "Where the hell do we start"? Kudos to the LAFD for jumping in and getting a handle on this fairly quick considering how much fire was there on rollup.
100% correct. Concrete based bridges will collapse if the fire is intense enough and burns for a very long time. It has happened a few times within the past 10 years. Even though it's still standing, there are massive chunks of concrete missing from the support beams and the damage is likely to get worse, because the fire was still burning as of earlier today. In Atlanta only a very short section of the freeway collapsed and it took 6 weeks to repair. Los Angeles's traffic is going to get 100x worse for a long time.
So sad, and probably who knows how many feral cats lived in that yard as well. When I lived in San Diego years ago I was always finding stray cats & kittens in a nautical supply yard behind my duplex. Always living and having kittens in stacks of pallets. :-(
@@JohnnyMack4785 Nearly all the politicians that are in LA ( 85% at least ) are republicans. Down here in Georgia, we used to have a very low crime rate when most who lived here were democrats. But the more republicans that started living here, the higher the crime rate went up. I'm really surprised that things like what happened here at this bridge doesn't happen more often.
Firefighters deserve more credit and respect than they get. Those guys are heroes! So scary to be in the middle of the flames, they can lose their life any second 🙏
I’m 350 miles away and feeling the precision moves of these ultimate savers of life, human animal rock and tree. A monster terror kept doable through the efforts of supreme craftsmen. God bless
Scott that shot at 10:00 with the cars driving and the gulf of fire in the back is unbelievably surreal. I am hopeful the dog owner takes their dog to the vet for a check up😢 Californian's are going to definitely going to be dealing with a huge headache. I feel like this freeway will have to be rebult. Due to the intensity of the fire.
I saw a segment on a show called Engineering Catastrophes, that showed what happened to an elevated freeway section, when a fuel tanker overturned and caught fire under it. The fire load actually weakened the steel reinforcement enough for it to collapse. So there has to be some damage to that freeway section with the fire load in this case too.
Thanks LAFD and Thanks Scott and team for the footage. Also, traffic is going to be horrible. It already is a pill and now we gotta deal with the detours. Safe travels
I love the straight videoing with no narration. The state of California allows someone to store thousands of stacked wooden pallets under a freeway overpass. It also allows homeless people to live and build shelters with the pallets under the overpass. The homeless burn fires to stay warm. What could go wrong? Cars just continue to drive over the inferno. This is Los Angeles in its final days.
I live here in Southern California and it seems like every year there are always several pallet yards and/or recycling facilities going up in a blaze. This one here was likely started by the homeless. It's also pretty surprising that one side of the freeway was allowed to remain open. I've seen the highway patrol close the entire freeway for lesser reasons.
Youre correct, both sides should have been closed in both directions. I'm safely guessing Law Enforcement agencies did not have enough Officers to cover. The supervisors should be held accountable and the Governor should review this matter and pressure the law enforcement commissioner.
@@TheSuperStarCarWash: Please cite the source for this information. Or did you see the fire being started? Do you also contend that Joe Biden was behind it all? I rather believe it was zoning regs that permit "pallet yards" to exist and maybe also that California, along with most other communities, has no system for housing the homeless or employing them productively.
@@abbylynn8872 DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE DOG IS? OUR RESCUE SUPPLIED HIM WITH FOOD AND MEDICAL CARE FOR OVER A YEAR AND WE ARE DESPERATELY TRYING TO FIND HIM!
that was an absolutely incredible blaze. shoutout to the LAFD for fighting that crazy fire! and shoutout to the camera guy; please be careful with smoke inhalation!
Well, maybe not. They had that thing on the east coast last summer where they thought that it would be closed forever, but with some new invented thing they got it open in less than a month. Fingers crossed for you guys.
It’s called evaporation. It’s a big ass waste of precious water. But the LAFD is to stupid to use other means at their disposal. Trust me I’ve had meetings with them and they are the stupidest FD in the country!
It’s a defensive fire under an overpass. The explosions weren’t an issue because nobody was entering the IDLH. Intense heat yes but wouldn’t really be my “nightmare” if I arrived to it
Armchair quarterback here. Looks like a combination: pallet yard, scrap yard, homeless encampment. Recipe for disaster. The sad thing is, every city of any size is now dealing with an enormous homeless population. Yeah, lets open the boarder when we can't even get a handle on our own problems. Thanks joe. Amazing job by the firefighters and first responders.
The homeless are Americans that Conservatives refuse to help because that would be “Socialism.” I’m all for raising the age where people can collect Social Security to 80, the Boomers have EVERYTHING handed to them on a silver plate. Hard work might do them some good.
Please post the names of the people who shot this footage. It's an accomplishment. You showed the whole disaster, and the underlying failures that allowed it, in the greatest possible depth. This is brilliant work.
This video journalist deserves an award, this cideo had it all! Firefighting, actual fighting, a dog rescue, and aparently a pigeon rescue and im not even half way thru yet
Same feeling here. Im halfway through and I had to take a break. It must have been terrifying. I wonder why the dog wouldnt leave. I was thinking that it was thirst and wanted the water. At a few points it stopped to drink the run off.
Excellent shots of the damaged concrete which spalled due to the intense heat 30:30. It is hard to see where the pallet yard ends and the homeless encampments begins.
God bless thebl firefighters.. they true Patriots... OUR UNSONG SOLDIERS ,WHO FIGHT FIRES SO WE CAN HAVE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT... MY HEART GOES OUT ALL OF THEM... WE APPRECIATE YOU AND THSNK YOU FOR THE SERVICES YOU PROVIDE TO KEEP US SAFE...
Brave reporter. I sure as hell wouldn’t be standing there, with things exploding under the bridge. You deserve a medal. Thanks for your work. God bless and protect the first responders. I never thought I’d see a bridge deck burn.
good job boys!! my dad was La county fire captain for like 25 years, makes me proud to see u guys kick ass. also the engine that was burnt looked like it was still pumping water lol.
I have driven that part of the 10 many times. It's rough but have gained a new respect for the engineering of that part of the 10. I would not have guessed it stand up to that. I seriously would have guessed it was gonna collapse. Amazing no one got hurt.
don't you think you would be providing more of a public service if you were to pray about the fires which haven't happened yet? It would sure make the firefighters' jobs easier.
Wow!!!! those firefighters were looking hell right in the face in this one, but as always the Heros were kicking ass and keeping everyone safe. You ONSCENE TV did an amazing job capturing this on video, it looked apocalyptic inside afterwards.
Unbelievable footage, amazing camera work---you are one brave, and careful person. Shout out to the firefighters, law enforcement, people saving the dog. Fifty thumbs down to the 3 morons arguing over whose sweater it is. I'm impressed w/ the professionalism of the LAFD & the ability to coordinate all the various agencies. So glad no one injured.
It looks like some of the cars around the 9:20 to 9:40 mark are bouncing as they drive over the section on fire. That would mean there's a dip in the bridge deck because the bridge is warped.
There probably are, but they're not enforced. I'm sure there were laws forbidding the camps by the Venice Strand. In the 80's or 90's they would've had their asses kicked out of there.
I often had to drive through this area of LA and often wondered why all this stuff was allowed to be stored under the freeway! Over the years there seemed to be more and more things shoved under there. And there are a few other areas like this, just waiting for a spark. This is great footage Buddy!
That's why in Europe they use foam to extinguish fires. In USA we only use it at airports. Foam is substantially more viable at extinguishing fires quickly than water.
@@Seadog..C5 Water is very effective, if you have enough water placed properly. But water can only remove but so much heat. Fire sprinklers catch it early, before the fire can get established, and cause far less water damage than the fire department will when they arrive. Oxygen generally does not burn, when it is already-burned. Water is the same as already-burned hydrogen. Did you sleep through chemistry class?
@@yosefmacgruber1920 I taught it. Damage control officer USS Midway Temperature.. fuel.. oxygen Those three elements are needed for fire Everything Burns young man. Even water. Eliminate one of the three conditions and you eliminate the combustion Try living what you speak. ( "Oxygen generally does not burn" ) That's a good one A question for you.. be honest with yourself and answer it without googling.. ? Why do they have water injection for very high performance internal combustion aircraft engines ?
@@Seadog..C5 Water generally can not burn, unless you have some even more reactive chemical involved. Very few things can burn underwater. Why did you take my statement out of context? Oxygen generally does not burn,w hen it is already bonded to hydrogen. What do you get when you burn hydrogen? Water. So it has already released its energy. Oh, I don't know. Maybe to control temperature? Do you know what happens when water is greatly heated? Steam. Maybe it adds to the expanding gases. We used to have this thing called the steam engine. Did you know that rocket engines used the liquid fuel to cool the rocket nozzle to keep it from melting? No wonder they used liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. Pre-chilled so cold that ice would be falling off upon blast off. Not many substances can be so cold without freezing.
Did you know there's a fire. not all the men or water in all the world can put out. Who only one can SAVE YOU FROM!! Only Jesus Christ can save your soul and rescue from hell.
It was crazy I was there ,chp and firefighters weren’t enough help we got trapped at the other side of the fwy ,also the helicopter when they saw the caos they turn off the light and left and people started fight each other and some we tried to be calm and we started cordinanar como salirnos de ahí 20 mnts later the chp arrived at that time people were crying and walking with kids it was fucking sas
@@AllenPortman You mean like the business that was allowed to stack massive amounts of dry tinder under the bridge without any safety measures in place? Of course that MUST be what you are referring to, and not the victims of those corporations and income inequality.
@@boycott2720🤣🤣🤣 most of these homeless people are on drugs and it was their addiction that coast them their life style and it definitely wasn't the corporations that forced them to take the drugs. Plus the city failed for not forcing this place to have safety measures.
I have driven by this immediate area many times and the homeless set their own fires all the time. You can see some streets blackened with soot. I have seen city crews clean up the encampment sites but the homeless come right back.
Great job and stay safe fire fighters. There appears to be an open Driver position with the Engine that was burned up. The Engine was not damaged but a total loss POI.
Thank you for acknowledging the hard work of the firefighters. I'm curious to know more about the open Driver position with the Engine. What qualifications are needed for the role, and how will the department handle the loss of the Engine? Also, what steps will be taken to ensure the safety and well-being of the firefighters in light of this situation?
To the one who did the filming of this major fire, you did a amazing work. Congratulation to you! Gilles from Montreal 👏👍

The truth is the company must be paying good money to the municipality to store the pallets there, if not, they should.

Amazing how much water a fire can absorb with no effect
You have enough water being applied to absorb more BTU's than the fire can produce. A big fire isn't going to go out the second you put water on it.
I saw videos of the Medici Condos construction site fire a few years ago and the hose streams vaporized before they even hit the flames.
That's why airplane fires are put out with foam, lots of foam.
It’s called evaporation. It’s a big ass waste of precious water. But the LAFD is to stupid to use other means at their disposal. Trust me I’ve had meetings with them and they are the stupidest FD in the country!
Not really
That fire is every fireman's nightmare. Explosions, excessive fire and heat. Stay safe to all involved in fighting this.
If they're afraid of fire and heat, firefighting might not be the best career choice...
The other nightmare is vinyl siding because vinyl drips when on fire.

Please post the names of the people who shot this footage. It's an accomplishment. You showed the whole disaster, and the underlying failures that allowed it, in the greatest possible depth. This is brilliant work.
This video journalist deserves an award, this cideo had it all! Firefighting, actual fighting, a dog rescue, and aparently a pigeon rescue and im not even half way thru yet
Same feeling here. Im halfway through and I had to take a break. It must have been terrifying. I wonder why the dog wouldnt leave. I was thinking that it was thirst and wanted the water. At a few points it stopped to drink the run off.
Yup even stupid people driving across a burning bridge like they are extras in some action movie. Smh.
WELL DONE VIDEO PHOTOGRAPHY
Man... There goes their carbon credits.
You ain't joking. You are *Onscene!!* Better than MSM imo. Keep up the good work. Subbed.
Thanks for reminder to sub..done
This was insane to see live, Scott went above and beyond to get the money shot
Excellent shots of the damaged concrete which spalled due to the intense heat 30:30. It is hard to see where the pallet yard ends and the homeless encampments begins.
Scenes of staggering incompetence!
All fire departments are the real heroes
God bless thebl firefighters.. they true Patriots... OUR UNSONG SOLDIERS ,WHO FIGHT FIRES SO WE CAN HAVE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT... MY HEART GOES OUT ALL OF THEM... WE APPRECIATE YOU AND THSNK YOU FOR THE SERVICES YOU PROVIDE TO KEEP US SAFE...
God bless these firefighters 🙏🏻
Scott just saw your footage on my weather channel. Great work! 👏👏👏
Yeah, it was a dumb idea in retrospect to have a wooden pallet yard under a freeway over-pass. God bless those firefighters.
Brave reporter. I sure as hell wouldn’t be standing there, with things exploding under the bridge. You deserve a medal. Thanks for your work. God bless and protect the first responders. I never thought I’d see a bridge deck burn.
Watched this live last night. You guys all did great, capturing some amazing footage! Wow.🔥
Must have been an adrenaline rush for you Scott, I’m still shook from watching. You NAILED it! 👏🏻
🙏🏻 For the first responses🙏🏻
good job boys!! my dad was La county fire captain for like 25 years, makes me proud to see u guys kick ass. also the engine that was burnt looked like it was still pumping water lol.
Well for those who said "jet fuel can't burn steel"
Those guardrails are steel. They've been melted by plain old fire.
Aluminum
I have driven that part of the 10 many times. It's rough but have gained a new respect for the engineering of that part of the 10. I would not have guessed it stand up to that. I seriously would have guessed it was gonna collapse. Amazing no one got hurt.
Fire trucks on scene but PD can't close the freeway?
Why?
A few thousand dollars worth of pallets destroying tens of millions of dollars of highway and a bunch of people with shit for brains.
Lol too busy giving out tickets and being typical lazy
The reality is that fire just canceled out all the electric vehicle goals in California for next 10 years
The global is warming more worser now and Newsome
Is isshing his pants 😂
😂😂-okay, now that’s hilarious!
So much love and respect to all of the firefighters! Praying for you and will not stop praying for days!❤
don't you think you would be providing more of a public service if you were to pray about the fires which haven't happened yet? It would sure make the firefighters' jobs easier.
Oh my- I wish I would have mentioned that! Before I even make a comment I always pray for safety and Gods loving arms around them!
The sound of the fire burning the bridge was crazy. I cant believe they didnt shut the freeway down sooner.
Wow!!!! those firefighters were looking hell right in the face in this one, but as always the Heros were kicking ass and keeping everyone safe. You ONSCENE TV did an amazing job capturing this on video, it looked apocalyptic inside afterwards.
You guys did really, really good, and you guys keep up the good work and be careful and safe .
Nice beard Calvin 😊
Unbelievable footage, amazing camera work---you are one brave, and careful person. Shout out to the firefighters, law enforcement, people saving the dog. Fifty thumbs down to the 3 morons arguing over whose sweater it is. I'm impressed w/ the professionalism of the LAFD & the ability to coordinate all the various agencies. So glad no one injured.
It looks like some of the cars around the 9:20 to 9:40 mark are bouncing as they drive over the section on fire. That would mean there's a dip in the bridge deck because the bridge is warped.
Yep.... I would never drive through a freeway fire like that
I wonder if the hot freeway burnt any driver's tires.
thank you firefighters for risking your life for this crazy fire. 🙏. and some people have time to fight on the fiery freeway ???? SMH
Who would allow a pallet yard under a freeway makes no sense.
There should be laws restricting what is in and around infrastructure .
There are. It's just that they're not being enforced and everyone knows it's a free-for-all.
That's CalTans property and a CalTrans lease. They did it to themselves. Idiots.
They got what they asked for with the lack of enforcement in California. That's why I booked it out of there and relocated.
There probably are, but they're not enforced. I'm sure there were laws forbidding the camps by the Venice Strand. In the 80's or 90's they would've had their asses kicked out of there.
But the RepubliNazis/libertariNards don't like regulating businesses. Their extreme love of money above all else.
I can’t believe people are that dumb to driver over the fire that concrete could give way
It hardens under fire.
Is not like they can suddenly stop at high speed. Highway patrol should have closed the freeway sooner
Perhaps they are evacuees.
Stacks and stacks of dry wood under the freeway. What could possibly go wrong?
...it makes total sense to pile up so much fire load under a highway bridge... 🙈
I REMEMBER WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED IN ATLANTA@@Ponyreiter
probably the pallet companies were there before the highway was built
I often had to drive through this area of LA and often wondered why all this stuff was allowed to be stored under the freeway! Over the years there seemed to be more and more things shoved under there. And there are a few other areas like this, just waiting for a spark. This is great footage Buddy!
They are all over the place, right next to freeways. It makes no sense.
what i don't understand is why is Cal tran allowing pallet storage under I 10
It's always amazed me that no matter how much water you put on a fire it just won't go out. Sometimes it even spreads....
That's why in Europe they use foam to extinguish fires. In USA we only use it at airports. Foam is substantially more viable at extinguishing fires quickly than water.
Improper use of water in fighting the fire. Water is mostly oxygen, oxygen is one of the three elements of Fire. Read my comment above
@@Seadog..C5
Water is very effective, if you have enough water placed properly. But water can only remove but so much heat. Fire sprinklers catch it early, before the fire can get established, and cause far less water damage than the fire department will when they arrive.
Oxygen generally does not burn, when it is already-burned. Water is the same as already-burned hydrogen. Did you sleep through chemistry class?
@@yosefmacgruber1920
I taught it.
Damage control officer USS Midway
Temperature.. fuel.. oxygen
Those three elements are needed for fire
Everything Burns young man. Even water.
Eliminate one of the three conditions and you eliminate the combustion
Try living what you speak.
( "Oxygen generally does not burn" )
That's a good one
A question for you.. be honest with yourself and answer it without googling..
? Why do they have water injection for very high performance internal combustion aircraft engines ?
@@Seadog..C5
Water generally can not burn, unless you have some even more reactive chemical involved. Very few things can burn underwater.
Why did you take my statement out of context? Oxygen generally does not burn,w hen it is already bonded to hydrogen. What do you get when you burn hydrogen? Water. So it has already released its energy.
Oh, I don't know. Maybe to control temperature? Do you know what happens when water is greatly heated? Steam. Maybe it adds to the expanding gases. We used to have this thing called the steam engine. Did you know that rocket engines used the liquid fuel to cool the rocket nozzle to keep it from melting? No wonder they used liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. Pre-chilled so cold that ice would be falling off upon blast off. Not many substances can be so cold without freezing.
You folks give great news. No BS just news! Thank you for the job you do. Keep it up plz!!
The dog is thinking he`d rather burn to death than spend another second with these funky junkies
Dude, you got the best videos. How did you get up there with all that mess on the freeway.
He was there before it got to the freeway!
💯 the “homeless/unhoused” started the fire. There are many of them living under that bridge. 🚬
GOD BLESS ALL YOU FIRE FIGHTERS ❤❤❤❤❤
God bless and protect the Firemen that in dangerously, and diligently work together putting off infernal fires like this risking their lives.❤
Firefighters deserve respect & better pay/benefits.
Did you know there's a fire. not all the men or water in all the world can put out. Who only one can SAVE YOU FROM!!
Only Jesus Christ can save your soul and rescue from hell.
They make 200k. You want to pay more
Oof wait till you hear about their overtime lol they more than ok
Yes yes yes
Thanks again Gavin for your help with this problem
Many prayers goes out to all of the firefighters involved 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The loss of the fire truck could have been avoided for sure
Thanks, chief. Any other thoughts?
Always good to hear from an expert who was on the scene. Or...NOT?
Great shots and edits
I'm wondering why the CHP hadn't yet closed down the other side of the freeway!
I was shocked too seeing all the traffic drive through the flames, that was crazy. 😲
Yeah someone is getting fired for that!!!
It was crazy I was there ,chp and firefighters weren’t enough help we got trapped at the other side of the fwy ,also the helicopter when they saw the caos they turn off the light and left and people started fight each other and some we tried to be calm and we started cordinanar como salirnos de ahí 20 mnts later the chp arrived at that time people were crying and walking with kids it was fucking sas
There went 10 years of effort we did with clean energy trying not to make pollution!!
It’s all the homeless people living along the side that started all this
Are you insane? Yes, you are.
Never mind the giant stack of firewood under the overpass and the dry 50 mph winds.
I would agree....they are the only ones without having to comply with local laws or regulations 😡😡😡
@@AllenPortman You mean like the business that was allowed to stack massive amounts of dry tinder under the bridge without any safety measures in place? Of course that MUST be what you are referring to, and not the victims of those corporations and income inequality.
@@boycott2720🤣🤣🤣 most of these homeless people are on drugs and it was their addiction that coast them their life style and it definitely wasn't the corporations that forced them to take the drugs. Plus the city failed for not forcing this place to have safety measures.
Great job Scott,... we ❤ur work here LA
why was the freeway still open?
Who’s the genius that had the bright idea of storing pallets under a freeway????
Following
Serafin’s Distribution 1361 Lawrence St, Los Angeles, CA 90021 😒
Its a common thing
Pallet yard, yeah and what else?! Wood doesn't explode
Could've been a lot of stuff, you know they need forklifts to move the pallets, and lot's of them run on propane...
..the fire causing the moisture in the wood to turn to steam inside and kaboom !
probably propane tanks...most likely have a large supply tank to fill all their forklift tanks.
PROBABLY PROPANE TANKS FROM THE HOMELESS ( NOW THEY REALLY ARE HOMELESS ) AND TIRES FROM BURNING CARS
Exactly scaro81
I have driven by this immediate area many times and the homeless set their own fires all the time. You can see some streets blackened with soot. I have seen city crews clean up the encampment sites but the homeless come right back.
Thank you, I drive this stretch at night every day and I've observed fires almost on a daily. Sometimes multiple fires.
Welcome to a demonrat ran city!!
Great job and stay safe fire fighters. There appears to be an open Driver position with the Engine that was burned up. The Engine was not damaged but a total loss POI.
Thank you for acknowledging the hard work of the firefighters. I'm curious to know more about the open Driver position with the Engine. What qualifications are needed for the role, and how will the department handle the loss of the Engine? Also, what steps will be taken to ensure the safety and well-being of the firefighters in light of this situation?
GREAT JOB,"ON SCEAN",AS ALWAYS ! THANKS FOR THAT ! LIL BIT ANGRY IT WAS ! STAY SAFE ! 🇺🇲
Please God, keep them all safe.
People still driving on it. Damn, 9:40!
Pretty sure the commander of Fire Engine 17 is going to have a lot of explaining to do as to why they lost their engine.
2000 to 3000 thousand F degrees nuff said! Truck was still working fine though. Praise American gumption and savoir-faire.
@@belamoureNo reason it was every parked that close. It was heavily burning when they arrived.
Thank you for the great shots. What cameras are you using? I shoot mainly with Canon R5's and R's. Clean Footy!
