A Mayday was declared and three Indianapolis firefighters sustained minor injuries in a fall on the fireground Oct. 31.
Tom Dolan shared some photos from the fire scene with Fire Engineering.
According to Indianapolis Battalion Chief and PIO Rita Reith, crews were operating at a working fire in an abandoned residence when the spongy second-story floor gave way. Three firefighters fell approximately 10 feet to the first floor.
A Mayday was established but rescinded after all three members were quickly brought out of the structure by other crews. The injured members were transported to be checked out for back, elbow and foot pain, along with slight burns to an ear.
