Wasn’t it the firefighters who unintentionally caused this by turning off the engine which was keeping the air pressure to the braking system?

There are a number of choices that were made by various people that caused this to occur.

Air brakes are “negative”, which means that air pressure keeps the brakes off, not on. Loss of air pressure locks up the brakes.
