PHOTOS: Eight Seattle firefighters hurt while fighting a house fire Thursday morning are back on the job, while their colleagues plead with city leaders to avoid potential cuts to the department’s budget.

The firefighters suffered minor injuries after an awning fell on them on Sand Point Way NE near Matthews Beach, and a 57-year-old man inside the home remained at Harborview Medical Center in stable condition as of Thursday afternoon.

Officials confirmed the blaze first sparked outside, but investigators are still looking into what exactly caused it. A man living across the street who reported the fire before 3 a.m. told KOMO News this was a tragedy for the neighborhood.

“This is something that’s not in the norm for us. It’s scary, and it really shows how dangerous the job of a firefighter can be,” SFD spokesperson Kaila Lafferty explained, adding the firefighters were following protocol and were connecting a hose line to a hydrant when an awning or carport collapsed on top of them.
