Early morning on March 27th, 2024, Sullivan was dispatched to a residential structure fire at 114 Miller Street, close to the Elementary School. I arrived to find Sullivan PD on scene and smoke coming from every opening in the 2 story white house…it was believed to be vacant but often used by vagrants……

My buddy Jim Bartle showed up soon after I did…he probably thought I didn`t hear the tones, and we walked around the house to the rear as soon as the firefighters arrived and stretched a line to the back as well….

…and firefighters began to enter the rear door off the deck….

Firefighters made a quick knockdown of the fire inside the house, and while there, received another call…Jim took off to go to that call and I stuck around a few minutes later, before heading home.
