Smelling smoke\, the residents called 911 to rep ort the lightning strike and visible smoke in their home at 01:52:14. The Howard County Communication Center\, which serves as the Public Safety Ans wering Point for Howard County\, then dispatched a Local Box Alarm 5-62 to the residence. The Local Box Assignment from Howard County Department of Fire and Rescue Services (HCDFRS) included Paramedic 56\, Engine 101\, Eng ine 51\, Tower 10\, and Battalion 1.The residential structure at 7005 Wood scape Drive was a uniquely shaped single-family dwelling spanning approxim ately 8\,400 square feet. There are no fire hydrants on Woodscape Drive\, however the residence included a swimming pool at the rear of the property . One aspect of 7005 Woodscape Drive that contributed to this incident’ s complexity was the grade change along the rear of the residence (referr ed to as Side C throughout this report).HCDFRS established command at 02:0 0:29 and upgraded the dispatch assignment to a full metro-box alarm. While en route\, Battalion 1 (Incident Commander) instructed Engine 51 to use t he pool at the rear of the property to establish a water supply\, unaware that the first two arriving engines had not initiated a water supply plan. At 02:07:51\, Engine 51 entered the structure on the upper level of Side C (laundry room door) but did not advise command of either their level of entry or the conditions they encountered. Repositioning to the lower level of Side C\, Engine 51 re-entered the structure but did not make the Incid ent Commander aware of the grade change along Side C. At 02:12:41\, the I ncident Commander advised all units that residents had evacuated the struc ture.At 02:15:48\, Engine 101A advised the Incident Commander of visible f ire on the upper level of Side C and that they needed to redeploy back up to their initial entrance (upper level of Side C) to reach the fire. Advan cing a pre-connected hose line from Engine 51\, Engine 101 entered the str ucture through the laundry room door located at the upper level of Side C. At approximately 02:20:11\, FF Flynn had fallen through the first floor i nto a basement level crawlspace containing active fire and high heat condi tions.Engine 101A\, recognizing that FF Flynn had fallen through the floor \, declared a MAYDAY emergency on Bravo 1\, the radio talk group used for operations during this incident. While clarifying the MAYDAY emergency wit h Incident Command on Bravo 1\, FF Flynn transmitted his own MAYDAY state ment including a clear “Who\, What\, Where” on Bravo 2—an unmonitore d radio Talk Group. The Incident Commander quickly deployed the Rapid Inte rvention Crew (RIC)\, which entered the basement at approximately 02:27:17 in search of FF Flynn. Overcoming numerous obstacles\, including multiple crew members becoming entangled in wiring\, the RIC located and extricate d FF Flynn by 02:43:39—fifteen minutes and five seconds after their init ial entry.After FF Flynn was removed from the dwelling\, those on scene fo llowed and exceeded all BLS\, ALS\, and ACLS protocols as FF Flynn was tra nsported to Howard County General Hospital. Tragically\, FF Flynn did not survive.https://www.howardcountymd.gov/sites/default/files/2021-08/Flynn%2 0LODD%20Report_FINAL%20(Declassified).pdf LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Little Sisters of the Poor Fire\, Pittsburgh\, PA (1931) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250724T040000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250725T040000Z UID:262373165057 DESCRIPTION:Little Sisters of the Poor Fire\, Pittsburgh\, PA (1931) -- Th irty persons were known to be dead\, twenty were missing and more than 100 were in hospitals after a fire had destroyed the home for the aged of the Little Sisters of the Poor here tonight.
Most of the dead were aged and infirm inmates of the home which was located at the corner of South Aiken and Penn avenues\, in the East End district.
The fire which apparently started in the lower part of the building near the institution's morgue\, was first sighted by a nearby resident who turned in the alarm. Six alarms were sounded in rapid succession as the seriousness of the situation was discerned\, and firemen and police were called from all parts of the city. 
250 Inmates In Home At Time.
In the home at the time the fire started were 250 inmates\, about evenly divided between men and women.
The flam es quickly spread through the home and many aged persons could be steen st anding at windows screaming for help. Nuns and Brothers of a religious ord er aided the firemen in the work of rescue. After a four hour fight the fi re was brought under control and rescue parties entered the smouldering ru ins in a search for further bodies.
The Mother Superior of the Instituti on was among those most active in assisting the elderly men and women from the building. After the fire had spread so that it was dangerous for anyo ne to enter\, she had to be forcibly detained from further attempts at res cue.
Six of the missing were volunteer rescue workers who entered the bu ilding in search of bodies.
30\,000 Persons View Flames.
Police battle d an estimated crowd of 30\,000 persons who gathered as the flames lighted up the skies.
Most of the inmates of the home were all but helpless bef ore the fire. All were old and most of them suffering from infirmities.
 Seven women were trapped in a third floor room among them a MRS. MARY KLIN E\, 80\, who is blind.
"I just got down on my knees and prayed to God\," she said\, "and then I was rescued."
Despite the care given those rescu ed from the home\, DR. W. HOARD EVANS said he believed that the shock of t he tragedy would be fatal to many because of their extreme age. All those in the home were more than 60 years old.
Dead Not Identified Hours After Fire.
Hours after the fire the dead could not be identified except in a few cases.
In the Penn avenue and South Aiken avenue courts of the burn ing building\, scores of volunteers massed on a stout fire escape and pass ed inmates from hand to hand until they were brought to the ground.
With out the assistance of the many volunteers most of them young men from the nearby balloon field district of the city\, firemen would have been unable to cope with the situation. Scores of neighbors who hurried to the home a s the first cry of "fire" was heard said they were unable to enter the gro unds because heavy iron gates to the sidewalk and drive way were closed. 
Many of the volunteer rescuers scaled the high stone walls about the in stitution and firemen arriving a few minutes later battered down the gates to get equipment inside.
In some instances ladders placed against the w alls of the building were burned away before firemen could mount them. The n the life nets were brought out and many of the aged occupants whom firem en could not reach jumped to safety.
All Records Of Home Saved.
Fire d epartment officials said that all records containing the names of the home 's residents had been saved and with the air of these records they started a final check on the dead and missing.
The cause of the fire has not be en determined. From the first floor where it apparently started\, it sprea d rapidly to other sections of the home.
Oxygen was administered on the lawn to many of the victims and beside them reposed hly images salvaged by the faithful on occasion at the risk of their lives. MRS. MARGARET CONNEL L\, 75\, one of the many who tried to aid feeble and ill fellow-inmates to safety told how women battled againse suffocation and heat.
Aged Woman Describes Holocaust.
"We were almost suffocating\," MRS. CONNELL said. " The women had to run from window to window for air. Sister PASCALINO in ch arge of the floor made them stick their heards out and breathe before goin g on. There were no lights and the heat on the floor was intense. I felt t oo wrak to go on. I sand back on a bed and a fireman carried me out."
Si ster PASCALINO remained at her post directing rescue efforts and refused t o leave until the floor was cleared.
One body was taken from the ruins a ppeared to be that of a nun. It was clad in block clothes not unlike that of a habit. A number of other sisters collapsed while bringing inmates fro m the doomed structure.
A score or more of priests from various parts of the city risted their lives in the flaming home to administer last rites to the dying.\n LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:LODD John Nance Columbus\, OH (1987) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250725T040000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250726T040000Z UID:110083562802 DESCRIPTION:LODD John Nance Columbus\, OH (1987) On Saturday July 25\, 19 87 (3-Unit)\,F.F.
