Moser) arrived first to find a 9' x 12' shed fully involved. Engine 101 arrived and rapidly put an attack line in service, however, the shed was a total loss.
Structure 10-2: While Engine 81 and Rescue Squad 8 were still enroute to Structure 10-3, a second Structure Assignment was dispatched for smoke in the basement at 3965 Watson Lane. Lieutenant Moser held Engine 101 on the shed fire and diverted the rest of the assignment to the second call.
Engine 81 arrived and found an overloaded furnace. Engine 81, Rescue Squad 8, Brush 105, Paramedic 109 and Utility 10-1 remained on the scene until ventilation was completed.
