To the firefighters of Victoriaville, Warwick, of the Princeville barracks of the regional Fire Safety Service of the maple (SSIRÉ) were added sappers of the Incentraid Régie at the end of the morning on Tuesday to fight the fire in a building of Gaudreau Environnement located at 350, rue de la Bulstrode.
Around 11:45 a.m., the director of the Victoriaville Fire Security Service (SSI) (SSI), Patrick Davidson, also asked for the presence on the scene, as a preventive measure, of Bois-Francs emergency paramedics.
At 12:20 pm, the director of the SSI claimed other fighters in demand from firefighters from the Plessisville barracks (barracks 43) of the SSIRÉ with a self -pump truck.
The sappers have been fighting the fire from the middle of the morning. The call was received shortly before 9:15 a.m. at the SSI on boulevard des Bois-Francs Sud.
The general alarm was quick, the firefighters finding, on their arrival, the presence of smoke which escaped from the building and the presence of flames inside.
In addition, never to do, circulate on the fire hoses deployed on the road. City employees aboard a van taught him to their expenses and they were criticized by a firefighter, witness to the scene.
The SIUCQ agents were also deployed at the scene of the intervention to ensure the security perimeter and the rehabilitation of the firefighters.
