TO, HE DIDN’T WANT TO SHOW HIS FACE ON CAMERA AND HE DIDN’T WANT TO REVEAL HIS NAME. HOWEVER, HE DID IN GREAT DETAIL DESCRIBE THE MOMENT THAT HE SAW THE FLAMES AND THE MOMENT THAT HE AND A NEIGHBOR FROM ACROSS THE STREET, WELL, THEY BECAME NEIGHBORHOOD FIREFIGHTERS. IT WAS 9 A.M. SATURDAY MORNING. AND WHILE SOME OF HIS NEIGHBORS SLEPT IN, OTHERS LIKE THIS HOMEOWNER WERE WIDE AWAKE. I HEARD THE SOUND OF HEAVY WIND. CURIOUS. HE LOOKED THROUGH HIS GLASS SLIDING DOOR. THE NEIGHBOR’S DECK WAS ENGULFED IN SMOKE AND AS THE WIND MOVED THE SMOKE, THE FLAMES APPEARED. IT WAS GOING UP THE BACK OF THE HOUSE, A HOME WITH ABOUT SEVEN PEOPLE INSIDE. HE SAYS HE CLOSED HIS DOOR AND RAN OVER WHEN THEY CAME TO THE TOP OF THE STEPS, THEY ASKED ME WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE TOLD THEM THEIR HOUSE AND NOW HIS TWO WERE ON FIRE. WE RAN AROUND BACK TO LOOK AT IT AND IT WAS BAD. WHILE HE GRABBED HIS FIRE EXTINGUISHER, ANOTHER NEIGHBOR GRABBED THEIRS, BUT THEY ONLY DID SO MUCH. THAT’S WHEN HE SAID A WOMAN SHOUTED FOR THEM TO GET WATER. SHE’S TELLING US WE GOT TO DO SOMETHING BECAUSE IT’S GOING UP TO THE ATTIC. HE RAN AND GOT HIS HOSE, HOOKED IT UP AROUND BACK. ANOTHER FELLA FROM ACROSS OVER HERE JUST HAPPENED TO COME OVER AND HE GRABBED ANOTHER NEIGHBOR’S HOSE AND WE’RE SPRAYING THE FIRE, TRYING TO PUT IT OUT. WHEN THE FIRST PERSON FROM A FIRE COMPANY ARRIVED, THEY WERE TOLD TO STOP, BUT HE AND HIS NEIGHBOR SAID THEY WOULDN’T. HE KEPT TELLING THE GUY, LOOK, WE’RE DOING WHAT WE CAN TO KEEP THE FIRE OUT. AND THEY CONTINUED UNTIL THE FIREFIGHTERS TOOK OVER, FINALLY PUTTING IT OUT. I REALLY DON’T KNOW HOW TO FEEL, BUT I CAN FEEL AND YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY OVERWHELMING AND EMOTIONAL. HE DID TELL ME THAT THE FIRE MARSHAL AND AS WELL AS THE RESTORATION COMPANY, THANKED HIM FOR WHAT HE AND HIS NEIGHBOR DID. AS FOR THE CAUSE OF THAT, WE DO NOT KNOW. THAT SHOULD BE RELEASED LATER IN THE WEEK. AND WE ALSO DID LEARN THAT IN TOTAL, ABOUT 16 PEOPLE WERE DISPLACED FROM THIS FIRE FIRE. THERE ARE ABOUT SEVEN IN THAT ONE HOME, TWO IN THE OTHER. AND THEN THE ADDITIONAL HOMES AROUND BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T HAVE ELECTRICITY, THEY ALSO LEFT, BUT MANY OF THEM RETURNED. SO THAT’S WHAT WE HAVE FOR NOW. AND THEN, OF COURSE, LATER IN THE WEEK WHEN WE LEARNED THE CALLS, WE WILL, OF COURSE, TELL
