City View Fire

AFD Engine 7 was dispatched to the area of Sunset and City View SW this morning at 11:02am to investigate the report of smoke.

A neighbor directed E-7 to the 700 block of City View Dr SW. Upon arrival, the crew found light smoke on the roof and through outside vents.

The Captain immediately called for a full dispatch. E-7 made entry through the front door and found heavy smoke throughout the trailer. While the crew were searching for victims and advancing the hose line, they found two deceased bodies.

After completing their search, AFD Fire Investigation and APD Violent Crimes were called. The fire was extinguished within 35 min.

AFD Fire Investigation and APD Violent Crimes are working together to determine how the fire started and how the victims died.
