Control Burn - Saturday Jaunary 12, 2013

CONTROL BURN

CLARKE AVENUE/WILLOW STREET

Lawson's Night Club

 

Fire departments participating with Pocomoke City

Volunteer Fire Company were: 

 Princess Anne, New Church, Stockton, Snow Hill,

Girdletree and Greenbackville

 

 

    

 

There was an almost unheard crack and the one chimney in the building gave way and as it landed into the fire the remainder of the building collapsed, as if in slow motion, to the ground without making hardly a sound.  Smoke from the evening along with dirt and dust rolled out forming the largest dark cloud I had ever seen.

 

Another chapter closed.

Fire deparments were called to respond to a control burn that became out of control on Paige Fisher Road in Oak Hall, Virginia.

Someone was trying to burn a group of old chicken houses no longer in use.

Thanks Cindi!
