Break and Enter & Arson

"You can go inside and help if you want"

"OK."
"I go inside the house and check up on things but the smoke is clearing out fast enough so I go back outside and unhook the hose couplings to bleed the hose. I then turn off the pump and unhook the hydrant.*
(there is actually more to do if you think I did it all lol sorry to do so much though. I guess you'ld call it god modding.)

(Nah, it's good)
"Good work, lets just finish cleaning it up a little bit. "

*I reconnect the hose after bleeding it and wait for someone to help me. While waiting I put the chainsaw, rubbish hook, and axe away that was used before but I keep one compartment open for the circular saw and the fan. (Do we strap the fan to the back like they do on the foam trucks in NY or do we put it in a compartment?) I turn the lightbar off to conserve electricity and wait for someone to help me out.*
"Cleaning is not fun." *Sigh*
*I take my helmet off and go over the radio.*
"If anyone wants water, I got some."

*I radio back to Hanahan.*

"The smoke is pretty much clear. I'm comin out with the fan. Give me some water and I'll help you roll up the hose.*

"K."
*I give Davis some water and I put the fan back on the pumper. I get on the side of the pumper and grab the hose.*
"Ready when you are Davis."

"I'm all set."

*I help Hanahan roll up the hose.*

"Good work, anything else need to be done?"

**I get my clipboard**
Units on scene: LF-1, PC-2, AG-1
No reported injuries
Basement fire, spread through walls.

(Burke will change anything that's wrong)

Situation went well, P.D and F.D did have a situation between L-1 and P.C-2. Few communication issues at the start, and P.D did hold F.D back for an extended period of time.

"Nothing else needs to be done as far as I know. Let's get ready to return to base."

Good idea Davis. (Sorry, I've been gone for awhile )

"Alrighty."
*I put my gear back into the engine and make sure everything is in place. I close all the compartments. (I guess I'm driving) I turn on the engine and wait for the lieutanant says we're good to go. I wait for everyone to get back into the pumper.*

"patrol 2 to AG-1 I droped off the suspect at central you can question him there and do you need me to respond back to the scene?"

Takes off Coat and Helmet and pulls self up to passanger seat, grabs radio and says, pumper11 to COPA. COPA says pumper11. Standing by, scene clear, awaiting further orders, and hangs up mic. Hanahan? Would'nt the engine already be on. Yeah I think so....

(I turned it off earlier (put only the radio on and computer (accessories) on put turned the ENGINE off to save gas.))

"Lieutenant, When you and COPA are ready, I'll drive us back."

Actually it runs on diesel. That takes a good 3 days to empty if the engine has been running.

(Oh. Well I turned it back on anyway. lol)

((I take care of communications, so does Ewan, not you guys.))

"Still, saving fuel's important. I just need to check over the stuff and make sure it's on."

**I go through the compartments and check it all over.**

"P-11 to COPA, We're ready to be cleared"

I sit back and wait for the call to be cleared by COPA before moving off.

Sorry Garcia!

Fire units on scene, we are clear. Leave when you are ready. Investigators, once fire has cleared you may move in if it is safe.

I put the truck in drive and start to drive away.

*Ewans radios COPA.*

"Ok, we're returning to base."

*I begin to drive the engine to base.*

"PC2, Get back here ASAP, traffic is backing up for miles and theres a big crowd, when did I gave you permission to leave?"

Marques, Bohl, get on your fire gear and helmets and start investigating. I'll start redirecting traffic and disperse the crowd. Report everything that you find to me.

Pc 2 don't worry, I'll take care of it.

"maybe if you where active you would of been able to tell me not to leave"

I'm clearning en route to assist bls 1.

Copy that PC6, marking you as enroute to Trulit Landfill code 2

"PC2, I've had to check with the witnesses first, and I'll speak to your supervisor. Now get here and please start redirect traffic and get these civie's out of my scene."

I see someone crossing the crime scene tape. "HEY YOU! CAN'T YOU READ! GET BACK OVERTHERE!"
"Okay, okay, calm down officer."

((I've had personal stuff going on, that's why I wasn't crazy active))

"yaa copy..."

*i arive on scene an begin to question people*

"ya AG-1 no one saw anyhting"

Okay Starling, Tell them to leave my scene, request another PC if needed.

Bohl, Marques can I get an update on the investigation?

*I tell the people to leave*

"They are gone what do you need me for now"

Redirect the traffic if you will, and keep on I out for News van's or other media and let me know about it.

"AG1 to Garcia, what did you find inside the building? any idea what started the fire?"

"sure"

*I walk over and start re directing traffic."

"hey AG-1 maybe you should ask for another unit cause i can only do half of the street."

Sure, I will do it unil another PC arrives.

"AG1 to any availeble PC, respond code 3 to 33 Third Street, need you to redirect traffic on scene"

(just a thought i would have them respond normaly. No need to have them responding code 3 for traffic control.)

(I just don't want traffic backup up for miles and I need to lead an investigation)

Bohl, Marques any updates?

Put cones out and call it good, park one of your trucks behind it, it will be fine (said over radio)

"Radio back to us or DCBurke when you find the cause of the fire. I wanna know."

"Jansen to Davis, Sure I'll tell the Lt."

"Libor, this is Jansen, dont you have work to do on the landfill?"

"AG1 to Dispatch, can I get an City PC here?"
"Dispatch to AG1, PC is on it's way, should be there in a minute"

I wait some, and see a City PC arriving. "Hey, thanks for comming, can you redirect traffic on the other side of the road?" "Will do, Sir".

I'll put on my fire helmet and walk in the building, in the back I find a *I think* melted gasoline can.I photograph it and I take a sample from the can and bag it. I also take the melted can and bag it. On the left I see the place where the fire started, there no ashes on the walls. Looks like they poored the gasoline here and set it on fire, with possible match or lighter. I will search the personal belongings from the suspect. There nothing else I can find, since the other evidence is burned or compremised by the fire crews, but they need to do there work and I cant blame them.

Bohl, Marques get in the SUV, we heading back to base.
I walk over to city PD and tell him to go back on active duty again.
"Starling, stay here and wait for the owner or an other responsible party"

AG1 to DC, we're clear from the scene, heading to base for further investigation"

Jansen, I'm over viewing what they have done so far, it takes 4 seconds to talk on the radio.

Libor, don't talk like that to someone with a higher paygrade, shiny'er badge and bigger car, If you got a problem, come to my office or talk to your supervisor

No problem or nor did I speak to you the wrong way.

((Boys boys boys, please play nice...))

I would glady talk to a sup about how i feel about you, but we dont have one so we bottle it up

((When you don't have an immediate superior, you just keep climbing rank till you get the next highest.. That's me. As for this call, both of you, pretend to like eachother for this one call, we'll sort it out later))

"well im still directing traffic"

(ahhh no this is your scene remebr your in charge dont try and come in take over and then pawn it off when your done.)
"Patrol 2 to DC-1. DO i really need to wait till the owner showes up??? It could be days or weeks. HAve the desk call amd if no one picks up then we leave a note and when i get back to base we need to sit down and have a talk"(done thru mdt so its not put over the air)

"About waiting for the owner, I just don't want any other civie's entering a damaged building. And for the lil argument, I just needed an other PC on scene for redirecting traffic so I could lead the investigation."

PC 2 make sure to secure the scene with Jansen then you can return to patrol

(jensen left....so im 1 patrol unit thats supose to guard a house...yaaa...)

*the "owner" shows up and wants to speak with the person in charge.*

"patrol 2 to AG-1 you need to roll back over here the owner wants to talk to you"

Patrol 2, once the tape is up and the scene is secured, you're clear to go. Please skip patrol and report to my office once you are clear. We need to talk about something relatively important..

((pm me = going to my office))
