Fire this afternoon, 03.20.2014 at 15005 Athens. Fire department arrived promptly put fire out, two people displaced, cause unknown at this time.
Good work Lakewood Fire Department!
In a city filled with 100 year-old wood structures 20 feet apart, these guys are so needed and appreciated.

Video of the first at 15005 Athens yesterday!
Look how fast the firemen go into the building and put the fire out!
Last week, on the Madison Avenue arson case, Lakewood Fire Department had a stairway collapse sending 4 firemen into the basement. Yet as they do so often, running into a burning building to put out the flames, save the people and more often than not, 1he 80-year-old+ structure.
Lakewood is lucky, we great great safety forces.
