This fire was at 15086 Linnhurst in a vacant 1.5 sty wood frame dwelling. It was the last house on that side of Linnhurst in a now bare neighborhood of the 3rd Battalion. Engine 58 won the race, and stretched on the dwelling. Before our arrival, it was going pretty good. They stretched their 1.5″ handline and pushed throughout the dwelling making a hell of stop. It was very cold, and the wind gusts were near 30MPH.

Detroit firefighters fought a four-alarm fire early Friday morning April 7, 2023 at W. Davison and LaSalle. All the civilians from the four-story apartment building were rescued, with only minor injuries. During the initial interior attack, one firefighter from Engine 39 was noticed missing. A mayday was called, but he was quickly found. The entire structure is a total loss.
