- HEMET - On 10/06/2020 at approximately midnight, Hemet Fire responded to a commercial structure fire in the 1400 block of East Florida Ave following multiple reports of flames and smoke coming from the Aaron's furniture store located in the strip mall at the intersection with Florida Ave and San Jacinto Ave.
Heavy fire was located in the roof and at the rear of the building. Hemet requested assistance from Cal Fire and neighboring agencies due to a difficult to control fire that had established itself in a void space in the roof which made accessing the fire challenging.
Eventually firefighters gained access to the fire and knockdown was achieved in about 40-45 minutes.
The building suffered minimal interior damage including minimal damage to the contents of the structure. Most of the damage was to the exterior of the building.
The fire appears to have started in the rear of the building and then extended into the roof arising suspicion about possible arson. The fire is currently under investigation.
I have heard of fire sales, but this takes it to a whole new level.

tony boss302 I’ll get right on it.
It's definitely in the ceiling and it's crawling around looking for a way out
They still haven’t fixed the damage from the fire.
I see this every year
thats a tiny store, no wonder it burnt so quick
The fire was in the fascia. Good thing it was, b/c furniture stores burn like crazy.
my thoughts exactly that they should have opened that fascia right off spraying water and foam on something designed to shed it kinda pointless
fire in the attic type area glad to see they didn't start blowing out windows like i have seen done in a fire like this
@1:14 it's Chet from Emergency.
Yep spotted him.
Glad to see the RCoFD/Moreno Valley Truck show up and get on the roof.
A building fire is an awful thing, but it’s hard to find much empathy when the building is used by a business whose model is built on preying on the most vulnerable/financially illiterate segment of the population.
yes their prices are extreme but its like going to a convenience store to but anything you pay more for the convenience and they let you have something on payments with no credit needed so yea they gonna charge more in long run i would too if i had to wait to get my money in payments all the while i still have to pay the electric,water,sewer bills, rent for lease of building, and payroll
@@jays106 you're absolutely right... Aaron's prices are based on overhead cost, and also, you are making payments on the items, it's called interest...
In all actually, AARON'S prices are quite good considering the amount overhead costs they have to pay out... And then things like this fire drives the prices even higher because *EVERYTHING* inside that store is now non sellable... It's all ruined due to smoke/water damage... Sure, there was "minimal damage to the interior of the building and it's contents"... But the smoke/water ruined everything... It will *ALL* have to be replaced...
Why is the power still on? Firefighters at risk here!

it looks as if they managed to save Aarons blue sign
Fire service seemed to be having difficulty with this one.
It's a small department as they have engines coming from the Casinos
What a waste of foam.
I bought my couch from that store, before the fire sale of course!
For those of us on CZcams that don't live near Hemet, it would be nice to know in the title what city, state and even country this is located.
The name of the city is Hemet. Location, Southern California. Riverside County.
Everyone knows where Hemet is, its just another name for hell lol
Easy way to tell this wasn't FDNY: there's still windows left anywhere in the building ;)
My thoughts to the store staff and their families, from PR135-Northern California Aaron’s region.
Was the store staff and their families in the store at midnight?
@@rickgeller6043 No sir. However, they will be affected financially until the store is repaired I am sure. Perhaps there will be some assistance.
@@1John3KJV At least the store staff and their families will have your thoughts. That should pay some bills and put food on the table.
@@rickgeller6043 I'm not sure where that is coming from within you. If they worked for me, I would certainly do what I could. Go in peace.
1John3KJV Empty words of empathy have zero value.
Europeans use a much better through-the-roof system that doesn't endanger fire crews.
Sway, sway, sway, sway...

The water looks excessively foamy, was sea water used to extinguish the blaze? Kind of irrelevant just curious, great job by all involved.

Hemet is a long way from the ocean, they are using AFFF Foam or its modern equivalent, it makes the water penetrate and stick to the wood, slowing the spread of the flames (it has been 30+ years since I fought fires, but much of the stuff is the same)!
This by any chance a volunteer department? They sure fight fire like it. Would love to see what was going on the front of the building.
Ron if you knew anything about volunteers standards for training and firefighting in general I suggest you go to the NFPA's website and educate yourself before making such asinine comments.
retired volly I’ve forgotten more about firefighting than you will ever know...
@@rdbradleyjr B.S.
If you could read, Ron, you would know that the fire was at the rear of the building. Why would anything other than traffic control be going on at the front of the building?
Well involved upon arrival, located in attic space, minimum damage to conten
