On Thursday we told you about the intriguing video above first discovered by Firefighter Spot. Jason wanted to know more about the blaze, starting with where and when and then moving on to more details on the police department’s role in the operation.
Well, thanks to Gray, a loyal STATter911.com reader who likes a challenge, we think we have the answer to one of the questions. We know where it is. It appears to be an apartment building in Hempstead, New York.
Above is Microsoft’s Virtual Earth view of 20 Wendell Street. You can click the image to see more. Gray also found reference to a fire in that building on December 22, 2007. The article was posted on Firefighter Spot. So things have gone full circle in our search.
Not quite. The December 22, 2007 fire says it was started by a plumber doing shower repairs with a hand held torch. In the video above, it says the fire was intentionally set. So, if that is correct, these are likely separate fires. We will wait for more.
