Three Baltimore firefighters died after the collapse of a vacant home.
The bill, introduced this week by Councilwoman Danielle McCray, would bar city firefighters from entering vacant buildings if 25 percent or more of the structure has been consumed by fire. Additionally, firefighters could only enter a vacant building if the department “confirmed” an occupant was inside and “structural and hazardous conditions permit a safe entry.”
During Tuesday’s City Council meeting, McCray applauded the firefighters for their bravery and said their deaths have brought pain and grief not just to their families but also to the residents of Baltimore. Langford strongly objected to the idea of body cameras on firefighters, arguing they regularly handle medical calls where sensitive information is shared.Story continues below advertisement
“I think that’s an internal operational issue the department should be looking to address and not the City Council,” Langford said.
