Puppies Rescued from Yucca Valley Tortoise Den Su

Puppies Rescued from Yucca Valley Tortoise Den

Sunday San Bernardino County Fire crews were requested for a unique public service call in Yucca Valley. Two curious five month old puppies had made their way into a tortoise den and were unable to exit due to a 100 ln tortoise blocking their exit. Residents were worried as the dogs had been in the den for multiple hours and were silent.

#SBCoFD ME42 & MA42 arrived to find a large underground tortoise den with two puppies inside and a 100lb tortoise blocking the exit. Firefighters attempted to coax Oscar, a large desert tortoise from its den, so firefighters could get to the puppies. Crews used a tasty watermelon treat to attempt to coax the tortoise from the den. The tasty watermelon trick was unsuccessful & firefighters went to plan B, digging.

With Oscar blocking the exit, crews worked to dig an access hole to rescue the dogs. After an hour of digging crews were able to get the puppies out of the den. “Peo” and “Finn”, were unharmed & happy to reunite with their dog mom Kathleen.

We are glad we could assist with this unique call & there was such a positive outcome!

Fire Damages San Bernardino High Rise Occupancy

Fire Damages San Bernardino High Rise Occupancy

This morning San Bernardino County Fire received reports of a commercial fire alarm at a San Bernardino County Building in the 100 block of West 3rd Street, San Bernardino. Responding fire crews arrived to find heavy smoke and fire showing from the fourth floor of a six floor building. The incident was immediately balanced to a first alarm commercial response.

Arriving firefighters engaged in forcible entry, hose deployment & locating the fire. The fire was quickly balanced to a “High Rise” response, bringing a total of 25 Engines, 5 Truck Companies and 5 Chief Officers. Firefighters made their way up to the fire floor, working to locate the fire, search for any potential victims and initiate a fire attack. Once on the fourth floor, firefighters found heavy smoke, fire & high heat conditions. Crews tied in to the standpipe system, allowing them to flow water through working to suppress the fire and locate any potential victims on the fire floor. The fire, also exposed floors above, so keeping the fire to one floor was a high priority. The 5th and 6th floor also had high heat and smoke, but no fire. Crews worked in low visibility and high heat conditions to complete a search of the large space for any potential victims. Firefighters were successful in keeping the fire to the 4th floor. All searches of the building came up negative.

The fire was ultimately knocked down in approximately 90 minutes. Extensive overhaul, water salvage & investigation. No firefighters were injured in the fire. Fire Investigators are on-scene working on a cause / origin investigation. The cause is under investigation.

San Bernardino County Fire responded with 16 Engines, 4 Trucks, 6 Chief Officers, an Air/Light Unit and Two Fire Investigators. Redlands, Loma Linda, Colton, Rialto, Rancho Cucamonga, Highland & Chino Valley all assisted with the incident.

Thanks to our cooperators for their continued support these past two days.

Four Alarm Fire Burns Multiple Buildings & Pallet

Four Alarm Fire Burns Multiple Buildings & Pallet Yard in San Bernardino

Yesterday evening San Bernardino Co Fire crews were dispatched to a reported commercial fire, in the area of East Central & South Lugo, San Bernardino.

Crews quickly arrived on-scene to find a large pallet yard on fire w/ multiple exposures immediately threatened. Arriving crews worked to suppress the large fire & protect nearby exposures. Windy conditions & high heat quickly pushed the fire through the highly combustible pallet yard. A 2nd alarm was quickly struck to bring additional manpower and equip to the scene. A large amount of ember cast blew through the adjacent area causing additional spot fires, threatening multiple city blocks.

The pallet fire continued to grow through the large stacks of pallets, with FFs battling high radiant heat from the fire. Arriving crews utilized hand lines & aerial master streams to suppress the fire, working to keep the fire in the pallet yard footprint. A 3rd alarm was requested to bring additional FFs to the large & dynamic fire. The immediate fire area was evacuated due to the fire threat and power was shut off to ensure FFs were safe to operate.

Despite best efforts, the intense fire spread to mult buildings adjacent to the pallet yard. Downed power lines, gusty winds & high heat made the firefight challenging. At the height of the fire more than 70 personnel were on-scene. A large column of smoke was very visible from throughout the valley & mountain areas.

Three structures were destroyed by the fire & two were damaged. A large amout of pallets were also consumed by the fire. Firefighters were successful in keeping the fire from multiple large occupancies, businesses and adjacent vegetation. No damage estimates were available at the time of the press release. There was one minor injury to a FF & was not transported by ambulance. The fire remains under investigation

Two Alarm Fire Burns San Bernardino Commercial Bui

Two Alarm Fire Burns San Bernardino Commercial Building

This morning San Bernardino County Fire crews were dispatched to a reported commercial structure fire in the area of West 5th Street and North “F” Street, San Bernardino. Multiple 911 callers stated smoke from a two-story building.

Firefighters quickly arrived on-scene to find heavy smoke showing from the second story of the commercial occupancy. Arriving crews engaged, working to suppress the fire and ensure no occupants were inside the structure. Due to the size of the structure and amount of fire, a second alarm response was requested. The fire continued to grow, causing roof compromise, which forced firefighters to take a defensive posture.

Once outside, firefighters used aerial master streams and handlines to knock the fire down. Once safe to enter, crews reengaged to work on fire suppression and complete a search of the large occupancy. Ultimately the fire was knocked down in 90 minutes. All searches of the building came up negative. Firefighters remained on-scene for multiple hours working on overhaul and investigation. No injuries to firefighters were reported. The building, vacant at the time of the fire was heavily damaged.

San Bernardino County Fire responded with 9 Engines, three Trucks, three Chief Officers, a Training Officer and a Fire Investigator. Colton FD assisted with an Engine.
