Fire Critic An Unadulterated View of the Fire Service
Check out this video of a rowhouse fire in Rankin Borough, Allegheny County, PA.
Don’t worry, the videographer realizes that the video is sideways and corrects it!
Lonell Horton, Anthony Carter and several of their neighbors lost everything they own Wednesday when a quick-moving fire swept through a rowhouse in Rankin, sending billowing smoke so high into the air that it could be seen in several Mon Valley communities.
Two firefighters were taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital, Uptown, for treatment of cuts and burns suffered while trying to douse the flames, which heavily damaged the rowhouse at the corner of Mound Street and Fourth Avenue, a block from the fire station.
