Burnt Brats Result in Fire Call

A full fire response was dispatched to Camden Rd. for a possible structure fire. Upon arrival, Engine 5 established command and began a 360° survey around the building. The crew could hear a fire alarm sounding. As they approached one side of the building, they could see a resident standing on a balcony with a smoking cookie sheet. The resident explained that the smoke from burnt brats in his oven. Engine 5 made entry into the resident’s apartment and confirmed. Engine 5 then returned all units except for Ladder 8, who used positive pressure ventilation (PPV) to ventilate the apartment until it was clear of all smoke.
