USAR, Technical Rescue, and Special Operations units from Frederick, Washington, and Montgomery counties, in addition to Fort Detrick responded for the person trapped in a trench on Tuesday. A contractor was buried to the waist in 10 feet of dirt and rock in a trench. Collapse and technical rescue technicians worked intensely and delicately to free the patient. Once extricated, rescue workers immediately transported the patient to Baltimore Shock Trauma via Maryland State Police Trooper 3, a medevac chopper.
The rescue operation lasted for over 3 hours. Unfortunately the patient succumbed to his injuries.

Made a quick trip to Detroit early last week … extreme cold conditions with high winds. In three days we only made this one job. Commercial building, 8 mile rd & Stansbury. This appeared to be an occupied warehouse with some good fire in the rear. It took us about 15 minutes to make it in, just in time to see the fire begin to vent through the roof and the interior attack abandoned. The wind picked up as well. Two members crawled or staggered out of the building and collapsed right outside the door, apparently low on or out of air. They appeared to be in dire condition but once they got clear of the building and some fresh air they seemed to be ok, although I think they both went to the hospital later in the incident. I believe this was a very close call. I haven’t spoken to any DFD members but I would bet this was a case of conditions deteriorating rapidly and the members having difficulty climbing over debris and such to make their way out. At any rate, things seemed to have a good outcome. The fire became an exterior operation and they seemed to be plagued by water pressure issues as well as rig problems. As usual, the tenacity of the members prevailed and carried the day. I also have a video as well.

Here are some shots from the Still & Box Alarm on Union yesterday. Companies had water problems at first, there wasn’t any hydrants on this street. The hydrant Engine 54 had to hit was in the alley behind the house that was on fire.
