| Arts Fest weekend proved to be a busy one for the Alphas. Calls ranged from dwelling fires to automatic fire alarms all over our coverage area. The dwelling fires were both eletrical in nature and no damage occured to the residences. There was a report of a building fire at the Days Inn, however that resulted with nothing found in the building and turned out to be a malicious call. The company ran a total of 13 calls over the 2 days with 5 on July 14 and 8 on July 15. Both nights there were multiple crews bunking in at the stations. |
