Carr Incident After Action Review

This is a video AAR of the Carr Incident on January 16, 2020 in the city of Glendale (CA)

During this fire, two GFD Firefighters fell into a well involved basement during an active firefight. The subsequent actions by poised, prepared and well-trained firefighters, helped to quickly rescue and reduce more serious injuries to our firefighters.

As with any fire, there are lessons to be learned and shared from our experience. We share the AAR throughout Los Angeles region and beyond in an effort to highlight our successes and share our lessons. Our aim in being transparent with what we did well and what we could have done differently is to help share these very lessons with fire service members throughout the nation who may become more educated and hopefully help to reduce injuries to other firefighters.

We remain proud of the actions by our firefighters and equally proud of their open, honest and transparent accounts of the incident.
