    The crews arrived to find a residential involved approximately 50%.  All occupants and pets were reported to be out of the home upon arrival.  Due to the heavy fire load inside the structure and on the property crews had to maintain a defensive operation.  

    Other challenges were a primary powerline down and arcing hindering fire operations until APS was able to secure the power.  

    A water shuttle was implemented, however it was very difficult to manage due to the roadway only had one way in and out. Also, due to the heavy fire load and unsafe conditions VVFD requested and utilizes a Yavapai County Bull Dozer to assist with overhaul.

    The crews were on scene for approximately 11 hours and conducted a fire watch throughout the night.  One firefighter experienced heat exhaustion and was transported to Verde Valley Medical Center where he was treated and released.

    Power was restored early morning to the area.

    Cause of the fire appeared to be a generator operating on the porch. VVFD would like to remind all residents when using generators and they should be operated a safe distance from any structure.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
