Two Boys Hurt as Hose Entangles Them at Warehouse Fire
Two youths suffered an injured thumb when an unwinding hose pulled them along the ground during a warehouse blaze. Pumper Co. 3, 4, 5 and 7 controlled the fire about 20 minutes after the first alarm and remained until 5 40 p.m. to ensure no recurrence. Arson was suspected after a second fire was found at the site, though sparks could explain it, and an earlier boxcar fire on a nearby siding had required firefighters an hour before the warehouse alarm.
