Crews from Wisconsin and Minnesota were trying to control a rapidly growing wildfire in northwestern Wisconsin that forced evacuations of the sparsely populated area. Several structures were destroyed in a mostly rural and wooded area east of Solon Springs as the forest fire grew to 9 square miles, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources said. No injuries had been reported. (AP Photo/The Duluth News-Tribune, Clint Austin)

Firefighters remove a victim from the rubble after a section of a parking garage under construction at Miami-Dade College campus collapsed, early morning Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012 in Doral, Fla. A section of a parking garage under construction at a community college collapsed on Wednesday, Oct. 10, killing one worker and trapping another in the rubble, officials said. At least 10 other workers were hurt when the roof of the five-story concrete garage fell, creating a pancake-style collapse on the campus of Miami-Dade College, officials said. (AP Photo/Alan Diaz)

Rescues at Miami Parking Garage Collapse

Firefighters in Peapack, N.J., were called to the scene of a blaze in a 2½-story, wood-frame, mansion-type dwelling showing heavy fire conditions. Mutual aid responded from at least five area departments, and three tanker task forces provided water shuttles to the scene due to the lack of hydrants in the area. Firefighters used one ladder pipe, two deck guns, four 2½" master streams and several other handlines to extinguish the fire. Heavy snow and cold weather hampered firefighting efforts.
Tactical Tip: Fires in wood-frame structures that are near full involvement (involving the structural load-bearing portions of the building) should be fought defensively from the start. And in rural areas with limited water supply, select tactics that offer the best application of available water to contain the fire and limit fire spread. If the main fire building is already a loss, then focus on protecting exposures. It’s important to use tanker task forces that work together and have been trained to provide rapid water delivery. –M.K.
