K2M Photography's video: Westbury Fire Department Building Fire Urban Avenue 12-4-20

At approximately 05:20 hours on the morning of Friday, December 4th, 2020 the Westbury Fire Department was called to a structure fire on Urban Avenue in the New Cassel section of their district. When firefighters arrived on scene they were met with heavy fire through the roof of a large commercial building. A working fire was transmitted followed by a second alarm. Firefighters attempted an interior attack into the building; however, due to the volume of fire went to an exterior attack. The amount of fire also led to extension into exposures two and four. As the operation went on it reached a multiple alarm equivalency bringing mutual aid units to the staging area or to standby. The scene was placed under control around three hours into the operation. It is said the original fire building was being used for the packaging and shipping of electronics. The cause of the fire is under investigation and all fire department units were under the command of Westbury Chief of Department Gass [9601].
