Fire marshal: Sprinklers limited damage in Vancouver apartment blaze

The kitchen fire that temporarily displaced nine tenants at the Cedar Ridge Apartments last weekend did relatively little damage, and would have done more if not for the complex’s fire sprinklers, Vancouver Fire Marshal Heidi Scarpelli said. The fire itself, which started at a stove, was relatively minor and doused quickly by the building’s fire sprinklers, Scarpelli said, even though the fire damaged the apartment below.

Aurora Bridge first responders speak out for first time

Even to veteran paramedics like Mike Barokas, who has been on the job 33 years, the scene on the Aurora Bridge was so overwhelming, it seemed unreal. "It was somewhat eerie," said Medic One Lt. Mike Barokas. "It was so surreal it almost felt like a drill." Barokas, along with dozens more firefighters and medics from across the area converged on the carnage September 24 after a Ride The Ducks tour boat crashed into a bus packed with exchange students.
