Tactical Fire Problem - Fire in an Armored Car Delivery Truck

I don't know if you have thought about a fire or an accident involving this type of vehicle. Take a look.


1.) This fire should be a single handline and pretty straight forward, but is the hood a standard hood or is it reinforced more than usual?

2.) Suppose the driver is not with the vehicle.....is there someone locked in the back?

3.) Is this criminal activity and was this a diversion device and something else is involved?

4.) If this was not a fire but in fact an accident are standard extrication techniques going to work? Will your tools (jaws) work?

5,) What other agencies will be involved in this incident and how might your operation have to be altered?

Thanks, stay safe and stay thinking!
