It's like shouting "Fire!" in the middle of a crowded Ardmore

[giza]

So, I was on my way to run an errand today, and I ended up getting a front seat to this around 5 PM:



This went down on Woodside Ave., just by the Wawa on Lancaster Ave. As best I can tell, it was only shrubbery that was burning. No other property appears to have been harmed.

The Merion Fire Company's Ardmore truck arrived on the scene shortly after I did and promptly extinguished the blaze. Woodside Ave was closed for all of about 20 minutes.

The rest of the pictures can be viewed in this slide show:

SOG's Husky fluff. In the majority of departments, full PPE is required to be on before you get on the apparatus and it rolls.

I'm glad to see neither guy in full turn-outs is wearing SCBA though.

*hands them each a full bottle of cool water after they extinguish the fire and take their coats off.*
