Jacksonville Fire Rescue Department responds to commercial fire that goes to 2nd alarm

JFRD responded to an old two story house that had been converted to commercial use. The building was well involved upon arrival and with balloon framing and little room between buildings from side to side, this became a second alarm assignment quickly to stop it from becoming multiple buildings just as fast.
Sit back and watch this RAW footage from the scene. There were no injuries at this fire, and the cause was under investigation.

thank you!

[@ronfreniere8769]

Hopefully there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, yeah those balloon construction buildings burn fast. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.

[@thejfrd2490]

there were none.

[@andyhamilton8940]

Was that in Springfield area?

[@thejfrd2490]

Downtown

I'm glad nobody was hurt thank you Jesus

[@thejfrd2490]

Amen!

[@mike32277]

This is a business? Looks like a residential structure.

[@richardmeo2503]

Why do those lines seem so weak. A 21/2 should be shooting way farther. Using Fog nozzles?? Was that place being renovated or torn down??

[@thejfrd2490]

I am not sure why you are seeing that....I don't fully know the status of the building at that time before the fire.

[@richardmeo2503]

We used 21/2 often in FDNY and they reached 50 feet or more, and you heard the blasting sound of the stream hitting things. Yours seems to go 25-35 feet and there is NO impact sounds. Worked in Vacant Bldgs hundreds of times in my day, that one looks like a vacant.@@thejfrd2490

[@robertschwartzman195]

Why does this look like the building is under construction? Could there be someone doing an insurance job or maybe a member looking for more action for their department ?

[@thejfrd2490]

Are you accusing one our members of being an arsonist?

[@hosedragger-204]

​@@thejfrd2490sure sounds like they are

[@MD21037]

What???

[@russhornberger756]

get the f in and put it out

[@thejfrd2490]

With no lives to save, an old building, and advanced fire, what sense does it make to go in and risk firefighters lives? NONE! I think we will stick to what works for us...but thanks for watching.

You must have been an "interesting" coach. Would love to hear what they said behind your back.

[@thejfrd2490]

@@RLTtizME he would get people hurt or killed.

[@DaleDix]

They called a second alarm to stop it spreading and just put the old burning building out. Simplez.

[@thejfrd2490]

@@DaleDix that's right.
