Janmarie3 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 At approx. 0830 we were called out to an explosion at the Couerd'Alane Casino. Not knowing exactly what we were coming into, we arrived on scene just behind the casino where they kept about 10 -12 storage containers. Inside one of them is where they stored thousands of dollars worth of fireworks that was going to be set off during the 4th of july celebration. The Storage container was completely overcome with flames that shot out from inside the contaianer igniting a truck on fire. Two pyro-techs who had just gone inside pryer to the explossion never made it out. Its unknown how the fire started but knowing people on the rez I can only imagine. Some never think about these things when they light a cigarette. Anyway here is the news coverage. I drove my Ambulance in front of the camara hehehe. http://www.spokanetogo.com/index.php?id=1574 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janmarie3 Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 Rayster....I will be available for autographs after my big debut with Adidas and Gatorade LOL Loonie...I thought about it but it was a sad situation, I don't think a couple of EMT's acting goofy would have help the situation any. But I did think about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B the EMT Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 The fact that the ambulance was proceeding slowly, with no lights and siren displaying, speaks more somberly to the deadly event reported. The news item stated the fireworks show had been canceled out of respect to the 2 deceased. In my book, your decision was the only correct one.
