    Smoke Detector Alerts Occupants to Sedona RV Fire

    logo_sedonafiredistrictSedona AZ (August 30, 2018) – A homeowner in the Les Springs sub-division awoke early this morning to the sound of a smoke detector. Upon investigation, the homeowner discovered that the recreational vehicle in the garage was on fire. Thinking quickly, he was able to pull the RV out of the garage. When firefighters from the Sedona Fire District arrived they were able to extinguish the fire and remove smoke from the structure.

    “The smoke alarms did their job,” said Fire Marshal Jon Davis, “They alerted the occupants of the building before the fire could even activate the homes fire sprinkler system. Due to the early warning provided by the smoke alarms, the homes occupants are safe and damage to the structure and RV were minimal.”

    This fire stands in stark contrast to the fire earlier this week in Chicago where 10 children died in an apartment with no working smoke alarms. “We have spread the message that ‘Smoke Detectors Save Lives’ for decades,” said Davis, “For the cost of a fast food meal, you can purchase a smoke alarm and reduce the odds that you or family members will die in a fire by more than half. Unfortunately we still see far too many fire deaths because smoke alarms are not present or they fail because a battery has been removed.”

    The cause of the fire in the RV was traced to the refrigeration unit. The fire did not spread to the structure. Damage to the RV was estimated at $4000 dollars.

    No injuries were reported.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
