Units from North Highline, Burien, City of SeaTac, Tukwila, Port of Seattle, Renton and the City of Seattle are on the scene of a 3 alarm apt. fire in the North Highline area at S. 118th St. and 26th Ave. S.

26th Ave. command pulled everyone out from an interior attack and went to a defensive attack with ladders 29 (Burien), Ladder 54 (Tukwila) and Ladder 14 (Renton).

The talkgroup is Fire-4, with MA ZONE 3 patched in.

I guess the saying is true, "when it rains, it pours" or is it "everything comes in three's".....................

More calls in the Burien / North Highline area at the same time units were fighting the huge apt. fire,

1) Seattle Engine 26 responding to an AFA in the North Highline area (1st Ave. SW & SW 102nd St.)

2) Burien Aid 28, North Highline Engine 191, Medics 4 & 13, MSO 3 & 10 & Burien Chief 28 at the scene of a serious injury MVA at SW 122nd & Ambaum Blvd. SW with 2 red, 1 yellow and 1 green patients.

I've been listening to this since it started. Like you said when it rains it pours! Fire also was rolling to a car fire in a driveway of a residence right after that MVA call. Sounds like units in the southend are stretched pretty thin right now.

Also at the MVA was Kent Engine 73................

Another one tonight at 20:30 for Tukwila and North Highline in the 10200 Blk. of W. Marginal Way S.

Tukwila responded with Engines 53, 52, Ladder 54, Battalion 51, Training 51 and Inspector 512 while North Highline responded with Engines 19, 191 and Battalion 18

They used Fire 3 as there TG instead of the usual Fire 4 for fire incidents.

Yeah, I heard E73 responding to that serious MVA, and was wondering if they were coming from quarters. But, I had forgot that E73 had moved-up to Station 28 or was in the process of doing so.

Quite a bit of action for sure...

Here we go again...................

Large abandoned apt. fire in SeaTac still burning at this time on fire 4 and MA Zone 3. First alarm came in at 01:30 for the fire at 19200 Blk. International Blvd. Units from City of SeaTac, Burien, Tukwila, Port of Seattle, Kent, Renton, North Highline and So. King County responded.

So it is probably pretty safe to say that there is a shortage of ladder trucks in South King County again.

I know Ladders 54 and 74 are there. They said on the news they had 3. So 62, 14, 29?

so far I have heard Ladder 54, Engine 45, 451, Battalion 18, Ladder 29, 74, Rescue 45, Battalion 28, 182. What else have you heard on scene? I assume Battalion 45 is command. Most likely Engines 46 and 47 are also there.

Besides the units Eriksdaddy mentioned, the following were also at the scene - Port E711, SeaTac E461, SeaTac aid 46, So.King E26, PIO 20 and 71, Chief 45 and 46, Burien E29, North Highline E19, Port Command 700.

Units are still at the scene along with members of the King County Fire Marshals office

Seattle fire K9 unit Marshal 50 Just cleared the Fire. Hope to post a pic in a while of the back side of the fire building.

Here is a picture taken from the southwest corner of the structure where most of the destruction was.

According to the news websites, investigators have ruled the fire arson.

I also heard these units: Battalion 459, Rescue 45, and Rehab 1 which is the seatac fire explorers.

as of 21:32. SeaTac Engines 461, 47, Rescue 45, Battalion 45 and Chief 45 were still at the seen.

Engine 461 is on the west side (off of 28th Ave. S), Engine 47 and Rescue 45 are on the east side (International Blvd.), Battalion 45 and Chief 45 are on the south side (in the Comfort Inn Hotel parking lot)

A crane supplied by Ness Cranes was also brought in and will start removing part of the building to expose any hot spots.
