Rescue 10 and the F.A.S.Team on Somers Second Alarm Fire
By Deputy Chief Jason L. Nickson
February 21, 2024
At 16:50hrs on Wednesday afternoon, BHFD F.A.S.Team was dispatched to the Somers Fire District for a working structure fire.
Car 2441 arrived with smoke and fire showing from a 2 1/2-story residential structure and transmitted the 10-75 (working fire).
Members of the F.A.S.T. performed a 360 size up of the fire building and split the crew to have members positioned on both the "A" & "C" Sides of the fire building, remaining available for deployment. BHFD remained on scene until released by Somers Command.
A 2nd alarm was sounded and companies were eventually pulled from the structure by the Somers IC as the scene transitioned to a more defensive posture.
