The fire, which spread across two floors of the home, took approximately two hours to put out. A total of six people were inside at the time of the blaze, with four able to exit without injury. Two teens who were trapped inside were transported to a nearby hospital, with injuries ranging from minor to serious.
A firefighter was also inured in the blaze, suffering first and second degree burns to the face piece area.

6-4-18 is currently being used as 5-7-1 which is the rehab unit out of Engine 49’s house. 6-4-18 is the bicycle team transport vehicle.

I found it very curious to see where the firefighter was burned. Did they have a mask on? Was the mask defective? If it was defective, then that’s a major failure.

Looked that signature up on the crimesdown.com website and it shows it as Breathing Apparatus/Equipment and Supply-MMRT Transport Vehicle. Seeing as a member was injured I’m fairly certain the Breathing Apparatus members come out and secure the injured members breathing apparatus. That’s probably why they were there.

I saw Logistics vehicle 6-4-18 at this fire. (There is also a trailer, 6-4-18A)
What equipment does 6-4-18 and 6-4-18A carry?
