Mutual Aid Call




3:00am call for Mutual Aid support in MTKA. Fully involved……total loss. This was a major house fire. Million dollar home in a billion dollar neighborhood. This was my first look at….what use to be a house. C side was gone. Literally. All three floors were a pile of burning ruble. Cedar shake siding and roof gone. We spent two hours throwing water from the C side. Other crews spent the time managing brush fires around the densely wooded neighborhood and keeping the other roof’s from going up.

Total loss but we keep it contained. A lot of cities involved including Minnetonka, Mound, Excelsior, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Edina (and I am sure there were a few more).
