Fatality Assessment and Control Evaluation (FACE) Report: Roof Collapse Injures Four Career Fire Fighters at a Church Fire in Arkansas
On December 28, 2000, four fighters from a career fire department responded to a structural fire at a local church. The fire was started by electrical wiring in the truss void at approximately 0715 hours. A 49-year-old captain (Injured Fire Fighter number 1), a 28- year-old fire fighter/engine operator (Injured Fire Fighter number 2), and two 27-year-old fire fighters (Injured Fire Fighters number 3 and number 4) were injured while performing interior suppression activities when a section of the roof collapsed, trapping the four fire fighters. NIOSH investigators gave recommendations to minimize the risk of similar occurences.
