Crisfield Volunteer Fire Department – Incident Report At 1:37 p.m., the Crisfield Volunteer Fire Department was dispatched to the 300 block of Locust Street for a public assistance call. The caller reported accidentally locking themselves out of their residence approximately ten minutes earlier while food was cooking on the stove. Engine 203 responded, staffed with Assistant Chief Cavanaugh and an engineer. Upon arrival, Assistant Chief Cavanaugh established command and conducted an initial assessment. No obvious signs of smoke or fire were observed from the exterior of the residence. An investigation was initiated to gain access to the home and address the potential cooking hazard. Approximately four minutes later, command reported that entry had been successfully gained. The food was removed from the stove, and the burner was turned off, eliminating the potential hazard. With the situation under control and no further assistance needed, command was terminated, and Engine 203 returned to quarters. Crisfield Volunteer Fire Department |
