I made good time getting there. I was told they had heavy smoke with fire through the roof (as the picture shows) and within 10 minutes it was all over. Very fast knockdown. So I had a portrait shoot.
I arrived about an hour into the fire. I started to go early but was then told companies were investigating a smoke condition in the basement so I went back home. After being there about 10 minutes I hear them announce on the radio they are going defensive so I stared that way again. Members on...
I arrived about 40 minutes in. My granddaughter was sleeping on me so I had to wait for her to wake up.

This looked like a private junk yard. Ct DEEP arrived and before the FD left they took over 30 sets of gear including SCBA, hose etc. A lot of oil and who knows what else was mixed in the run off.
This building burned down early this morning. 24 hours after the first fire
