[Vision2020] Boyd Elevator fire

[Dan Carscallen]

At approximately 1745 Friday evening, Moscow Volunteer Fire Department
was dispatched for a mutual aid request to Pullman for an elevator fire.
Moscow sent one engine at first, but MVFD and incident commanders
quickly decided that more apparatus was necessary to assist Pullman Fire
Dept and Whitman County Fire District 12.  A MVFD Rural water tender was
dispatched to assist, as well as private apparatus from Bennett Lumber
Company.  Around 2030, an engine was dispatched to the intersection of
Warbonnet Drive and Highway 8 to aid in water shuttle operations.
 
At approximately 0530 this morning, MVFD crews were clear of the scene
and back in Moscow.  I'm sure there will still be mop up operations
taking place through today that could prevent travel on SR270.
