ONE MAN DIES IN LEBANON FIRE DISTRICT BLAZE

Image
Lebanon Fire District A Lebanon man died late Saturday night after a fire started in his double-wide mobile home in rural Lebanon. The occupant’s roommate was able to escape the blaze and call 911. Reports were relayed to the Incident Commander (IC) that there was a possibility of a victim in the home with a dog. The IC arrived to find a fully involved mobile home fire.

Firefighters were able to train fire streams into the building from the outside, noticing several places in the roof area had collapsed. The IC requested 2 additional water tenders from neighboring departments to bring water to the scene. After several hours firefighters had the blaze under control but still could not make access into the structure due to the amount of damage. Firefighters were able to use a track-hoe from th
