Went past that house many times, that's a squatter house (One on left)

[@twylaleighrockymountainhigh]

And an added note I hope everyone got out safely.

[@BrokenRecord93-ul7br]

Just passed this earlier didn’t even know what happened but the house on the corner is like completely burned down and the house to the right of it the family was all outside I didn’t realize their house caught fire too. Pretty messed up

[@sanfranciscobay]

These Fireman are exposed to some deadly toxic smoke and the damage to the Organs doesn't show up for 20-40 years later.

It will be a good thing to have them rotated out for medical after a 'vintage' incident.

And that's why they are paid so well, and have absolutely fantastic benefits and a rocking retirement package.

I pray the people got out and their animals too, if they had any. Sad.😢

Looks like across the street from the BART compound on 5th Ave and 7th ST.

Question when Firefighters punch holes in the roof doesn't the outside air make the fire spread faster, because of the oxygen feeding the fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.

[@sofiaso9942]

I don't understand why firefighters are without any protection and can fall into the house, they don't wear masks and they are exposed to toxic smoke

[@kymaneezmom]

Oh I hope nobody was hurt😮

[@loudounfisher9135]

Those truck companies are good an f'd if they were to go through the roof. Do they not pay attention to case studies and lessons learned by others. Among other things, those helmets have straps for a reason.
