GREAT FALLS FIRE RESCUE FIRE INFORMATION RELEASE
Great Falls, MT \u2013 Great Falls Fire Rescue has been quite busy with the recent Artic cold
snap affecting Great Falls. From January 12 \u2013 15th, Great Falls Fire Rescue has responded
to 100 call for service. Of those 100 calls for service, GFFR responded to 3 working
structure fires, 1 car fire, 7 natural gas calls in structures, and 5 calls for breaks to fire
sprinkler systems.
On January 13th, GFFR responded to 2 working structure fires that occurred 3 hours a
part. The first fire occurred at 6:40 am at 1603 1st Ave N. This fire occurred in a house that
is split into 3 apartments. The fire was found to have stared in the attic. There were no
injuries as a result of the fire: however, one apartment was deemed unlivable and the
American Red Cross was notified to assist the occupants of the apartment. The second fire
occurred at 9:02 am at 1018 8th Ave S. This residence is another multi-family residence.
The fire was found to have started in the basement. No occupants of the residence were
injured, and no occupants were displaced. The cause of the first fire was determined to be
electrical in nature, the cause of the second fire is still under investigation.
This morning at 7:32 am, GFFR responded to a fire at 1127 7th Ave N. GFFR arrived on
scene to find a fire in the wall and floor of the kitchen. The cause of this fire was
determined to be electrical in nature. The occupants of the home were not injured, and not
displaced as the house is still livable.
Over this time, not only have the crews from Great Falls Fire Rescue been extremely busy,
they have had to battle the bitter cold, dealing with frozen fire hoses, frozen tools, and
frozen fire engines. Given these hardships, the crews of GFFR have continued to adapt and
provide fire and life safety protection to the citizens of Great Falls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
