I imagine this will be an issue in this locality for a while.
What I absolutely cannot comprehend in this situation is that the fire department, ostensibly including a full complement of men and equipment, was deployed but not used. Whatever operating costs the department incurs for dispatching a crew were incurred in this case. The only thing they didn’t do is fight the fire. Somebody really needs to explain that.
Perhaps the neighbors had paid their fees and they were protecting other houses from the possible spread of the fire.
“The only thing they didnt do is fight the fire. Somebody really needs to explain that.”
They will rescue people in the house and prevent the fire from spreading to other houses. Also most mobile homes would be a total loss no mater what they did.
