A Firefighter's Brave Stand: When Buildings Fail
A firefighter's job is tough. It's not just about putting out fires. It's about staying calm when things go wrong. Like when a roof caves in. That's what happened in Gwinnett County.
A Night of Chaos
It was Saturday night. Around 7:15 PM, emergency calls flooded in. Flames were shooting out of BenchMark Physical Therapy. Firefighters rushed to the scene. They saw the roof was on fire.
Nine firefighters went inside to search. Two hose lines were set up to fight the blaze.
The Roof Collapses
But then, the roof collapsed. One firefighter was hurt. The other nine had to get out fast.
A Reminder of the Risks
It's a reminder of how dangerous firefighting can be. Buildings can fail. But firefighters keep going.
Beyond the Blaze
This isn't just about a fire. It's about the risks firefighters take every day. They put their lives on the line. For us. For our safety.
A Moment of Reflection
It's something to think about next time you see a fire truck.
