More on the Utica fire at 1408 Whitesboro Street

L, B and I happened to be out shooting yesterday when a friend of ours notified us of a fire not too far away. It was easy to see the smoke from our location in North Utica, so we ventured over to see what was happening.

During the firefighters struggle to get control of the fire, two firemen fell from a roof, onto a lower roof, requiring a rescue operation. Also, a neighboring home owner was removed from their home. All of this was no easier with the cold and windy weather.

"Two Utica firefighters (Lt. Anthony Sbiroli and Firefighter Jeffrey DeSarro)who fell 12 feet from an icy roof while fighting a Whitesboro Street fire Saturday have been released from the hospital, Fire Chief Russell Brooks said Sunday." - Utica O.D.
