warehouse fire

The warehouse across from the rear entrance of MurderKroger on North Ave. caught fire early this morning. I didn't hear the sirens and thus was late to scene. By the time I got there the blaze was out, the cops were redirecting traffic and the firefighters were cooling off and shooting the breeze with the local media.

The warehouse was abandoned and all preliminary stories I heard said no injuries. I walked up behind Ladder 15 as it was hosing the main roof collapse, trying to extinguish any hot spots. I love the fact there's a box of donuts just sitting between the two firefighters on ladder detail.
