Yep, just got back, smell of smoke, and camera is loaded with pix,

In total spotted 11 FESA Vehicles,

Also spy-ed there was about 10 WAPOL cars, some officers with what looks to be Inspectors Ranks on their shoulders, Western power Chanel 7, 9 and 10 and Stirling city council.

Give me 10 to upload all the picx, and you can see them in the PIX section

House fire up at Chidlow, 1 person deceased. Rather large incident.

Fire Emergency Services have discovered the charred remains of a body believed to be that of a 23-year-old man in a house destroyed by fire this morning.

The fire in Clifton Street Chidlow destroyed the house and an adjoining duplex that was home to a single man.

The occupants of the other section of the building managed to escape the blaze.

FESA spokesperson Allen Gale said only one person had been unaccounted for at the scene.

The dead man's family are understood live close by.

Mr Gale said the fire was "very hot" and the A-frame building had been completely destroyed.

â€œVery little of the house is left apart from ash and iron,â€

My pager hasn't gone off yet, presuming it to be Midland and Bassendean or Midland and Welshpool that are there.

Any further info guys? It may also be Mundaring may have turned out as well because it is not in the metro fire district. Though Bassendean would also be a logical backup. Tyrannus is it unusual for darlington not to be turned out to a structural job in Darlington even though you guys have no structural capabilites or do go guys get turned out to help wherever the perms need you?

I don't have my scanner with me and haven't seen any other info online.

Haven't had a page for Mt Helena, though Mundaring and Parkerville are closer structural brigades - I don't know if Darlington do structural?

I believe that is what I said. Darlington don't do structual. Also was told that bassendean attended or backed up midland

Darlington is part of the Metro Gazetted Fire District / ESL Category 1, so response would be from career crews.

Although structural is not a main role we are usually called to backup Midland.
As Fastlane said it is in the gazetted fire district, albeit on the boarder.
