- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- On March 6, 2019 at 2315 hours, NFD units were dispatched to a report of a house fire at 584 Prior Avenue in Newark, Ohio. While responding, dispatch advised they had received two calls reporting a fire at this location. This was a 20x45 2-story house situated on a very narrow street. NFD responded with 2 engines, 1 ladder, 3 medics, and a battalion chief, in addition to two automatic-aid engines. NFD total strength for this fire was 17 firefighters. Battalion-1 was the first arriving unit, and reported fire in the back (Charlie side) of the house on division 1. The fire was contained with two hose lines, and the cause of the fire is under investigation. No injuries were reported, however two dogs perished in the fire.
This video was recorded with a Motorola Moto Z Force Droid in an iBolt suction cup windshield mount.
SPECIAL NOTE- Due to how narrow this street is the video is blocked by Rescue-1 who was assigned to establish water supply. You can skip forward to 16:50 to pick back up on the action. Sometimes this is unavoidable and the nature of our business.
I have additional videos on my other UA-cam channel at / traumawave
You can keep up to date with Newark Fire Department on their Facebook page at / newarkohfire or on their web page at www.newarkohiofire.org
I have opted to allow commenting so that people can ask questions or make comments/observations. Please keep it respectful. Most of us are here trying to learn. If you are disrespectful I will block you.

Stay safe!
I was really suffering from severe Newark Fire withdrawls, but alas, Dr. Decker was called back into service. I liked the confidence of the chief when asked if the car should be moved. " Nope" No need, we'll have if knocked down quickly; and it was. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Chief Decker, glad it's been slow for you'll, but your videos are missed and always a welcome sight, Have a blessed 2019, A loyal fan and friend down in NC!
Enjoy how well this department works and everyone does an excellent job. Thank you Chief.
I wonder if Newark, OH realizes it has the absolutely best fire department around. No other department compares with these guys. Just watch all the other videos to see why.
I’m sure there are other departments just as good, but they’re probably not posting videos to YT like Chief Decker does. I have seen some other command videos in the same style that show good leadership-but yeah, these are some of the best I’ve seen so far.
Amazing video and it is, sad when animals die in a fire. fire fighters you did your best as you always do keep safe
Should I move my car??? Nope, too late.
Thank you for posting, Chief. It would be great to see a video of your station, staff and apparatus some time.
I am hoping to get those videos posted soon, as well as some questions/answers that I frequently get.
BC Decker & the NFD aggressively & efficiently tame the beast yet again. Outstanding IC fellas!
Not sure how cold it was, I see snow on the ground. Did you have to call extra manpower for fatigue due to the cold? If possible, what are the different sounds that go off in your vehicle? God bless you and your whole fire personal for the job that you do. Even through all the excitement you keep your cool, no pun intended, and direct everyone in a professional way.
We did not have to call in extra manpower. The temperature was 22 degrees with a windchill of about 10 degrees. We had the fire knocked down quickly enough that we didn't need to call in any extra manpower. The sounds that you are hearing is the MDT (computer). We use a program called Tiburon for emergency responses. So you hear a Microsoft Windows sounds each time a unit hits their on scene button and each time the dispatcher adds notes to the call such as when I requested the power company or confirmed that we had PAR on the fireground. Thanks.
Thank you again Chief Decker for these uploads, and condolences to the family over the loss of their furry babies.
woohoo! He's back! Great stop all!
We had a bit of a dry spell. It is good to be back.
Sad about the dogs.
Awesome Job Chief. Thanks for uploading this so others may learn.
You are welcome. Always working to train up the next generation.
A good job done by your men so sad that puppies didn’t make it
I have really enjoyed your videos. You guys are the best by far. If you lived in my town I'd want you to fight fires here. Keep up the good work and God watch over you as you keep everyone safe. Thank you. 😁
As a former firefighter I commend Chief Decker and his crews. No needless radio traffic. All commands are clear and consistent. Newark should be extremely proud to have a chief like you. Stay safe.
It’s amazing to me the folks that criticize (aka bash) the fire department. Does your badge say Chief before your name? That title is earned not given. If you can do it better, turn out and we’ll see you on the fireground.
Mark you hit that square on the head
Chief, thanks for a great fire ground video.
Great job, as always, Chief Decker and NFD (and mutual aid departments). You guys always seem to be efficient, organized and generally working like a well-oiled machine!
Where's the front door control! lol. She seemed pretty self-ventilated out back anyway though. I'm sorry someone's house had to burn down, but it's been a long time since Chief posted a video and we were getting bored.
Thank you for the street view, gives an orientation to the viewer. Much appreciated what you do. Take care!
DVincentW: I agree. Actually, I looked at this on Google Maps. That area is quite the labyrinth!
@@adelefarough5123 That's what I like about Newark. We have a mix of areas. Some very old balloon frame homes that are very close together up to industrial areas.
Thanks for posting chief.
Yes!! You're back!!! Missed the videos, awesome job n sorry to hear about the animals!! Keep em coming!!
Chief, always amazing at what you and your crews do. Also would I be able to get PDF of your on scene report form?
I’m sorry what you guys had to go through on that fire, as a firefighter myself I fully understand...
Email me at daviddeckersemail@gmail.com. I'd be happy to send you the forms that I use.
Great job chief
Chief, I've watched several of your videos. As a former PD Chief having been on several fire calls, your guys rock!
This is how it's done my friend.
Good job. Stay safe!
Thanks. And thank you for your service with the police department.
The citizens of Newark OH are well served by this FD. Sorry about the dogs, though.
Nicely done sir as always
One of these days a few of our guys from our Department want to make a trip over there see around and meet you
Im a career firefighter for 17yrs. Preparing for our promotional testing which includes a tactical scenario. Ive been watching your vids trying to develop my radio transmissions and tactical priorities. Your command presence is great chief...hopefully I can obtain some of calmness for this test. Thanks for the vids theyre great
Good to hear that you are working on promoting up brother. I would be happy to help you with some things like tactical worksheets, and how I go about organizing the chaos if you are interested. Feel free to email me at daviddeckersemail@gmail.com.
Best of luck to you. I hope the videos help.
@@commandvisionfire that is an admirable response in this day and age. God Bless and stay safe.
Thanks for posting again!
im glad u kept the rescue pt in vid. liked listening 2 ur fire info calls. ty david. stay safe.
Loving the videos and seeing it through the eyes of the men and women out protecting us. Please keep the videos coming.
First.... Great job again chief...
Why did the dude not just move the cars before the engines got there? Stupid to know something's going on and just sitting around on the porch, then when FD shows up, he's all "Can I move my cars" Bruh get out of here with all that mess...
That's what I thought.
Maybe because he was sleeping, and only got woken up by the sounds of the approaching sirens. A large number of people perish in fires because you can’t smell smoke when sleeping, and only the loud noise of the alarm will wake them - Fit and Check your smoke alarms people.
As an aside, the older advice was to fit smoke alarms on the approach hallway to your sleeping areas, as most fires started in kitchens, garages and other areas. I’ve installed smoke alarms with 10 year batteries ( no need to change twice a year, but still need to be checked on) in my bedrooms, due to the proliferation of devices in bedrooms such as TVs, and especially phones and tablets and their chargers. Very high risk for fires.
All these armchair fire fighters in the comments LMAO😂😂
I'm used to it. Some are civilians and have legit questions. Some are firefighters trying to learn. And some are trolls. I mute the trolls and delete their comments.
JAKE W: No, asshole. We're just civilians with legitimate questions. Furthermore, those of us who are fire survivors find comments like yours bloody insulting.
I apologize to the more intelligent component among the commenters, because I'm sure if you have seen my comments by now, you're probably thinking that I should get over being a victim. Well, here's the thing. There are two kinds of people in the world: people who have experienced housefires and people who have not. Of the people who have experienced them, many were not lucky enough to survive. Those of us who have survived may well be dealing dealing with a lifelong case of fire-related PTSD., a.k.a. pyrophobia. In my own case, this has manifested itself in nausea, vomiting and dizziness at the smell of smoke, inability to light a match or a cigarette lighter, and a complete and utter inability to live in a house that has a fireplace. I watch these videos as a form of exposure therapy while doing breathing exercises when things get too stressful for me. Right now, this particular video is my therapeutic focal point, because, for unknown reasons, this particular one bothers me.
As a child, fire was a big problem. I would be afraid to go to school because I was afraid the school was on fire. Then, at the end of the day, I would be afraid to go home because I would be afraid that our house was on fire. We could never have surprise fire drills where I was at school, because it was necessary to have me sent home first, or else have some unlucky teacher watch over me being sick in the little girls' room while the fire drill was in progress. Happily, The school authorities were sympathetic once they realized that I had been through a fire. I went to school in the days of corporal punishment. A couple of boys were strapped because on the way to school, they told me that the school was on fire. On that particular occasion, I went running home. Of course, the school called my mother to find out when I was absent. Once the reason was ascertained, there was hell to pay. That kind of bullying stopped very quickly, I am happy to report.
yet another no nonsense straight to business tactics...I didn't even hear a PASS alarm go off..these guys stay working hard. Comms on point too.
Fantastic job men well done keep doing great work and never stop training and practicing for the worst case scenario and God bless you all !!!
I’m not a fireman, so I don’t know the techniques or standard operating procedures and fighting fires. I have watched all of David Decker‘s videos, one thing I am truly impressed with his ability to remain professional Indeed his teams. I have not been able to find any videos that come close to matching the videos that chief decker posts. One thing I have been is a leader, chief Decker I salute you fantastic job
Thank you.
Excellent job everyone. Keep up the excellent work. You make the citizens proud daily.
Man it's almost like you guys rehearse every fire. Smooth, quick, and guys that give a shit. Can you send me 3 guys for my crew 140 miles north on 75 :)
Nice video! Great job by all involved.
Sad about the dogs. I looked at the house on Google street view and had a picture of I'm assuming one of the dogs that perished looking out a fence. Broke my heart as a dog owner myself.
At first I thought rescue 1 was first due and asking myself why are they pulling another section of supply off instead of opening up a side compartment and pulling a 25ft supply and connecting to what was already on the ground and to the side of the rescue but then I rewatched it and realized they were pulling it all off so they could pull it up to engine 2 which was first due. I rewatched all your vids before commenting so I don’t get muted from commenting on this channel. I’m in a fire department explorer post for teens ages 14-18 years of age that want to join a fire department so I have some knowledge of operations but not full knowledge of operations. Overall great job chief on all scenes you are command on.
Excellent work by all! 21:25 It's good to see the fireman opening the window to vent the smoke rather than the typical smash and destroy technique usually used by other departments after the initial fire is out.
AMEN just another small piece of professionalism over the majority of Yahoo departments that post really bad videos on here, if they only know how it makes them look! Chief David Decker and his department are definitely first class!👏👏👏👍👌
Thanks.
Mark Willcox: as much as I hate to criticize firefighters, I'm afraid that when we had a fire, the firefighters did a lot of damage. I am going to guess that their priority was getting that fire out.
@@adelefarough5123 yes sir I can only imagine, as a firefighter of 15 years, I was privileged to be a volunteer in a paid atmosphere meaning we had the chiefs, officers training and equipment to be the most efficient and professional we could be and settled for nothing less, not only do I have so much respect for Chief David Decker and Newark Ohio FD but it shows ALL the qualities listed above! Don't get me wrong I understand some departments are doing the best job they can and today especially with volunteer departments there are LESS men and women volunteering in their communities which strains the safety of their families and property! What really gets me in a bad mood is watching a paid department with frontline great equipment and no training and poor leadership (and it clearly shows)!!! When There's No organization and Unnecessary damage to the structure and property! For example a thermal camera can see fire in and behind the walls and ceiling in stead of tearing outfall the sheetrock and as in this video Chief Decker's crew simply opens a window! NOT BUSTING IT OUT AND TOSSING THE A/C OUT ON THE GROUND! I stood up and applauded! Professionalism! Training! Great Leadership! A group of people who have pride in themselves and the job done! It's like comparing the previous 8 years of President Obama vs the past 2 years of President Trump! Huge difference huh ? Again to Chief David Decker as crew I salute you sir 👏👏👏
people be crazy thinking saving a house from a fire is as straight forward as dumping some water on the fire.. if it was that straight forward, any regular joe would be able to do this job..
Just a friendly reminder I enjoy your videos and you and you fire department stay safe and warm.
Thank you.
Great job as always Chief. You guys are top notch and always enjoy your videos. I really like how you take the time to answer questions people ask here.
Wonderful job....amazing footage ! Thanks for posting,be safe and stay awesome!
Great disciplined fire ground operations.
Hello, everyone this is the owner of the home you see in this video. I want to thank everyone for getting there very quickly and doing the best that they could.
Yes, I lost two dogs, they were my babies and very loved. Some of my kitties are no longer here with us as well.
But, I have another problem. Someone is going into my home right now and stealing our things. Yes they have been damaged by soot, smoke, fire or water but that doesn't seem to stop them.
We don't know who they are but if there is anyone that is close to Prior and see's someone, other than the people that we have okay'd to be in there, that is carrying out items and shouldn't. Please call the police!
There was someone there last night or the night before and ran off with a white xbox and a computer tower. If anyone knows anything, post it here or call the police.
Because you have to be lower that low to steal off of someone after they just lost everything.
Sorry for your loss pets are a very important part of family. Glad everyone else got out unharmed.
My heart and prayers go out to you, the family and for the loss of your pets. I'm sure it wasn't easy to accept.
Sorry to hear about your fur babies they are more than just animals they are family like our children
You should contact Newark PD and request frequent patrols on this street and make them aware that nobody should be inside of the house. We have had issues like this come up on other fires. If it continues to be a problem please contact the Newark Fire Department and ask to speak to our fire marshal. He can assist you.
I am so sorry for your loss. Nevertheless, I find myself asking what is *wrong* with society these days? What kind of jerk would go into someone's fire-damaged house and steal what's left of the owners' belongings?
Frankly, when my parents and I had a fire, my father was very concerned about looting. He was concerned enough that he chose to stay in the house regardless of the soot and the residual fumes. My mom and I went and stayed at my grandmother's. Unfortunately, my mom was pregnant the night of the fire, and she miscarried the next day. It was not a good week for her. Then again, it's never a good day for a fire.
Nice stop by all involved. Well done Chief!
another great video, god bless you and please stay safe. thanks for sharing.
Good communication. Simple, direct, and effective. It's becoming a lost art 👍🏻
Lol - "can I get my car out of there"....."Nope"
Another great video
If he didn't move it 5 minutes ago...
As always David a great video
Excellent video. I wish our department utilized dash cameras so we can critique and train after events. You guys are definitely always on your A game!
Thanks. I wish everyone would utilize dash cameras. We can all learn from each other.
Hi Dave, as I've mentioned before I always hit the like button before I even watch the whole video because I admire how you try and do things. (I only said try because sometimes boop happens) I've always been on volunteer fire dept's for the past 40 plus years until I got COPD. At least 95% of the time I'd show up on scene and was given no directions on what to do even when I'd ask the chef. So I'd start grabbing tools off the truck and have them ready because I knew they had gone in the building without them and would be asking for them. I'd also walk around and unkink hoses and grab tanks off the truck and be ready to help anyone changing there tanks as they came out of the building as needed. I'd also be setting up lights if needed, starting up chain saws and the fans to make sure they started. Way to often I'd show up the house is totally involved, three engines on scene, one tanker and only one 1-1/2 being used with at least 5 people standing around waiting to be told what to do and no one connected the tanker to the engine being used.
Forty-five years ago, I briefly flirted with the idea of joining a volunteer department. The reason(s) I didn't are lost to me now, but were probably immature at best.
I also briefly entertained the notion of joining the City Department about thirty-five years ago, but they weren't hiring at the time. Life distracted me after that. Some friends joined a suburban department, and encouraged me to reconsider, but I had suffered a minor spinal disc injury by then, and also felt myself a bit old to start at what I recognize as a mentally- and physically-demanding job.
What I see in your videos is a solid focus on crew safety, top to bottom and side to side, through observance of protocols that I suspect came through hard-learned lessons of crews before. It's interesting to me to see how the protocols work. It's interesting to hear how word choice is influenced by radio equipment and mission clarity (as with many professions, specific words for ordinary objects become important).
Thank you for these videos.
R.I.P. sweet puppies.🐾🐾💔.
This video just came into my UA-cam feed. I think I'll wait to watch it. I can only guess what that family must be going through.
When I was a child, we had a dog that was burned alive in a fire. I don't remember that because I was too young; however, I remember hearing a lot of family members talking about it over the years. Apparently, hearing that dog screaming in the flames was unspeakable.
Adele Farough most animals as well as people die of smoke inhalation long before the fire gets them.
I've been wanting to do this for my Dept. here in Pike County, Pa but due to some former members' nefarious activities, i have been advised NO ! Chief your an outstanding leader from what I see in your videos
Nice work guys! Love seeing ground ladders thrown for potential egress. Every ground ladder=another egress👍 Unfortunately, its become an afterthought and a forgotten art these days with most depts. Heck of a lot easier and faster to hand shag a ladder to another window/side than to maneuver these monster towers that everyone seems to want as their primary truck companies.
Outstanding job guys!👍 Cheers
Chief Decker! Thanks for your hard work and efforts by you and all your crew! And thanks for calling in the Red Cross, I’m a volunteer and I always enjoy the opportunity to be able to help these people in need!
Good job putting the wet stuff on the red stuff
As A Fighter myself, Chief, if there was no ldh across the road why not let the neighbor move his car?
I liked watching you responding too. Other videos seem to just have short snip its
Sometimes I include that, and other times I get right to the fire. I thought the radio traffic from dispatch while responding was important, so I included it on this video. Thanks.
Good Job keep up the Training and Professionalism. P.S. keep making Firefighters proud.
Thanks.
This is my friends house. She lost not only her dogs, but her cats too. Just watching this killed me.
So sorry about the loss of her pets. Did the fire department make any attempt to locate and remove them upon arrival?
Great video and Command structure as always Chief. Thank you for sharing.
I always like how the ambulance crews get put to work on the structure and arrive turned out. Seems alot of depts that doesn't happen, even when the emts are structural ff
Our department is small. We had 17 on duty that night. I always like to assign an EMS sector in case one of us gets hurt, but I'll use the other medic units on fire assignments.
Fire Control, tells Fire Command that "15 minutes have passed, need PAR." Wonderful !
What is PAR?
@@nogeek43 Personal Accountability Report. They are making sure the team commander of each group knows where all the firefighters assigned to them are. Some cities use physical tags, in some videos, particularly NYFD, you can see the tags hanging from the back of their helmets. Other cities like Houston, can do the par check electronically, which gives the chief an electronic recording of each persons status. I like good questions. Thanks for asking!
Another "bread and butter " job handled nicely. Maybe try a "tri-fold" hose load on the handlines? Makes for faster deployment even in cramped conditions and virtually eliminates the need to work out the tangles before charging. Thanks for sharing!
Mac Lager: Oh, dear! There lies the difference between those who fight fires and those who suffer fires. Happily, those of you who fight fires can afford to regard a fire such as this as "bread and butter." This means that you can stay calm. I think the last thing anyone needs is a firefighter having a panic attack on duty, although I am well aware that there are a lot of frontline workers these days who are suffering from PTSD. Nevertheless, for the families who are displaced by fire, I'm afraid it is not a "bread-and-butter" scenario. It changes people. There are two kinds of people in the world: people who have been through a fire, and people who have not. I notice that people who have been through a fire are way more careful about it.
more strong work! stay safe brothers!
David what can I say, that you are a very confident person in your work, even when the next door neighbour asked if he should move his car, and you said no, well how confident is that. Great team work and a leader.
This should be required viewing for emergency vehicle operators. Gets there safely and smartly. IMO
At the very beginning, i saw a Dog running, is that the dog of the Occupants of the burning home? I'm Praying the dog is okay.
Edit : I'm not a Firefighter, I'm a Sister of a Retired Firefighter. I just enjoy watching Firemen in Action Saving Lives and Property when all possible.
Good knock down.
Oh and thanks for the advance on the video as for the engine moving back. Cheers
Good job chief i like how you operate on structure fires keep up the good work and stay safe
Even watching the back of the truck, if you look to the left, you can see the dark smoke slowly vanishing from in front of the neighboring house, and then listening to the raido chatter makes it decently suspenseful. because we can see something IS happening, but just getting to imagine the (cliche i know) Heroic battle going on inside.
Seems like a long time for water
I am a captain west Manchester volunteer fire department in Ohio i enjoy all the videos
Good job on knocking it down quickly
Damn the truck who parked in front!!
Got to place the truck where its needed to do the job
Great knock down!
Hey 🖐️😂 Battalion 1 Good Job Chief 👍👍
Should of let him move his car !
What does “of let him” mean?
I know one thing, I wouldn't have to ask if I should move my car away from a structure fire but I'm not clear why he said not to. Anyone have any insight as to why not?
The street looked very narrow, I think the Chief had a concern that the exiting car would have blocked the next due rig coming down the road.
Why would you say not to move the car? If it was mine, I’d want it away from the house.
Safety concerns. Person could get smoke inhalation and they’re in the collapse zone. You can always get another car but you can’t get another life
He had time to move it earlier, left it too late
@@rolly4x4 Chief Decker knew there was no need for the car to be moved. The fire was in the back on the Charlie side and he had the confidence in his team to make a good stop. Which they seem to do a lot. Also, had the neighbor tried to move his car, he could have ended up in the way of the next responding unit, in this case Rescue 1, who was assigned to water supply. Remember, this was a narrow street. So anything in the way could cause a problem.
These videos are very helpful and encouraging
dave what is your guys ladder 3
It is our new ladder truck. A Pierce Ascendant.
I like your calm demeanor Chief! Calm in the face of terror speaks volumes of your character and experience. I also like your 'work on your radio discipline, you sound like an ant hill' comment.!! :)
Thanks. I'm a believer that anxiety is contagious. If I start getting crazy then others will start getting crazy and we start to lose control of the incident.
Why does your truck computer keep making that pop up sound?
It's basically telling him there's been an update at the call like all units arriving on location and so on
Great video! Everyone in the fire service can learn something positive from these!
On a side note, what kind of vehicle are you driving for your Chiefs car? That engine sounds mean
It is a Ford Explorer Police SUV.
Great videos Chief..
another prime video, i can't tell if the front door was open on ur 360. i would assume it was do to smoke conditions showing in the front. if it was i would have tried closing it to eliminate fire growth and flow path. still another fine comms n control incident.
You make a good point. And scientifically you are correct. But at the street level I make it a point to not become involved with the "hands on" work if I can avoid it. Anytime I am helping pull a hose or carry some piece of equipment, I'm not doing my job as the IC. I run the risk of missing something important, or falling behind on tracking resources. My goal is to quickly do a 360 and get back inside the car so that I monitor radio traffic and track the on scene resources with zero distractions. Not saying you are wrong or I am right, that's just what works for me. Thanks.
Stepping back and being “hands off” is something I find really hard to do-but I’m learning (and Chief Decker’s videos are a great resource).
What kind of truck does the chief drive? It sounds good.
Probably a 2500 Silver-Ray-Do.
Thanks chief for posting and prayers to you and your team for all that you do. Two questions: ever considered a go pro on your helmet to see your 360's and various views of the chief and 2nd what type of vehicle do you run?
Yes. I'm trying to find a good camera for that exact purpose. I had a helmet camera, but the problem with that is it would probably make about half of the people nauseous because I'm constantly looking around. But you are right, some type of camera on my body would be beneficial.
@@commandvisionfire thanks Chief for your response. Stay safe!
Awesome job Chief! Stay safe and take care. Thanks for posting!
Chief Decker, thanks again for another great video, thanks for all you and your department does every day God bless you'll and may he continue to keep you'll safe! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Were I used to work, our District; Assist, Division, and Deputy chief. Did not ride in Battlion Chief units, they had thier own unit. It is werid to me that Chief Decker is in A BC unit. I know every department is diffrent. Love your videos chief.
