Proper PPE and quick water. Nice job.

As sad it is to lose your vehicle by fire, I also feel bad for the owners of the surrounding cars that also sustained fire damage, particularly the grey Lincoln MKX on the right and the gold Buick Lacrosse on the left. If I had known there was a fire in a parking lot, I would immediately run out to my car and drive it off to safety, even if it means risking my own safety to run towards a car fire. I know cars are replaceable and lives aren't but with the shortage of inventory at the moment, saving your current car matters even more.

I pray the kielbasa wasn't burned. Great response time for a V.F.D. & thank you for serving Cheektowaga.

Guy in the tan gear needs to get it together.

Still don't understand why time is wasted putting on air masks for an outdoor fire. I was a volunteer for many years. Car fires we just got the water on the fire. No time spent fooling around with Scotts.
