Craig Allyn Rose captures First Place


Fire Department photographer Craig Allyn Rose captured first place at the 2010 CPF Photo Contest.

On Wednesday February 24th at 2:41 hrs the SJFD responded to a craftsman style home in downtown SJ. Numerous callers were reporting a house on fire. When crews arrived on scene they discovered smoke and fire on the first floor and basement. An aggressive fire attack was initiated including a search of the interior. In the photo you can see Fire Engineer Matt McIntyre as he ascended the ladder to vent the roof as the fire began to spread to the second floor. When asked about the award Craig stated, "I didn't expect to win this year, but I am incredibly honored to be able to be in the position to capture the hard work of San Jose's bravest.

Nice work Craig!
