House Fire on Smithfield Valley Road 9/6/09

- 09/10/2009

    At around 2:13 am Amenia was toned out for a working structure fire on Smithfield Valley road off of Route 44.  Upon arrival the officers knew they had to work fast to contain this fire to the back of the building which was already fully involved. ( the structure was an 1800 hundreds colonial house with 2 huge additions off the back of the structure)  The first two engines arrived at the same time Amenia 31-15 and the brand new 31-11 ("Foam Boy").  Wassaic 69-31 ("Big Blue") was also on the scene very quickly.  The Chief immediately chose to attack this fire with the compressed air foam system on 31-11, and within minutes the fire was under control.  The attack was through  the front door and within seconds we were able to enter the structure and push the fire back to its origin and completely extinguish it. It was an awesome stop and a great job done by all (at the scene Amenia, Wassaic, Sharon CT, Millbrook, Stanford,
Millerton, and also Dover was on standby at Wassaic ).

This was also 31-11's first structure fire for Amenia and it proved to be a wise investment for the district.
