Woonsocket firefighters quickly knocked this fire down in this 3sty wdfm 6 family dwelling at 119 Chester Street just before midnight on April 3, 2008. Engine 3 stretched up to the #3flr left side apartment with an 1.75" hand line and quickly knocked the fire down. Fire did drop down to the apartment below which was also quickly stopped by Ladder 2 and Engine 4. A huge THANK YOU goes out to Fire Chief Ken Finlay and Deputy Chief Williams for their efforts to get me into the scene to try to shoot the brothers in action.....Even though you both waved me in across the lines...the COPS prevailed in their wonderful bulldogness...enough said before I lose my cool again...
