Crews were dispatched at 4:58 p.m. and Engine 39 arrived first on the scene less than a minute later. On arrival, Engine 39\u2019s crew found a heavily involved structure with fire through the roof in an approximately 11,000 square feet two-story abandoned residential structure. Based PCFR\u2019s pre-incident preplanning, the structure was identified as high-risk for firefighter injury with a secondary risk of \u201cintentional compromise\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The initial arriving team quickly got water on the fire within minutes and attempted a brief interior attack and primary search, then within minutes, were directed to switch to a defensive operation by incident command due to the heavy fire and risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One PCFR firefighter was transported from the scene to a local medical facility. No occupants were found in the structure. However, crews continue to conduct a secondary search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
