This is an interesting video from Modesto Fire Department complete with 911 calls, radio traffic and various angles, including from a police officer’s body-cam. It’s a fire just before 6:00 a.m. on Campus Way in Modesto, California. Police officers position a dumpster so a woman can drop down two dogs. The woman was about to come out the same way when firefighters showed with ladders. Video first spotted on FireCritic.com.
Two Modesto firefighters will be recognized at Tuesday’s City Council meeting for their role in rescuing two women from an apartment fire.
Jesse Miguel and Jason Wyatt rescued Tammy Dobbins and her mother from an apartment fire on Feb. 14. The early-morning fire trapped the women inside their home, leaving a second-floor bathroom window as their only way out. Neighbors had attempted to roll a dumpster up to the building for the women to jump, but firefighters arrived with a ladder and got them down safely.
