Silverwood Apartment Building

July 31, 2009 - At 1733 hours, Engine Co. 2 and Tower Ladder 2 were alerted to Box 2-11 for a building. E21, TL2, RS2, E22, C2C and C2 responded to the 200 block of Shore Acres Way in Silverwood. Company 2 units arrived on side Alpha of a three story apartment building with fire showing on all three floors. Units found a ruptured gas line with two apartments off on the third floor. Command requested Washington Gas as Company 2 units worked to contain both apartments. The gas was shut off and the fire knocked down a short time later. Tower 2 worked with Tower 1 to knock down all hot spots. Company 2 units cleared in three hours. Thanks to PG E837, AA T42 and PG RS833 for filling in. Pictures courtesy of Dennis Hook.
