A Detroit Firefighter is in stable condition with a possible head injury after a wall collapsed at a fire.
Crews were fighting a fire in the old Fisher Body plant at Harper and Piquette this morning. Two firefighters were in the bucket, approximately 40 feet in the air, when a wall of the building collapsed.
Initial reports say that the one firefighter jumped from the bucket to avoid the falling debris. He was initially knocked unconscious but has since came to. Video (below) shows his fellow firefighters rushing to remove him from the debris. He was transported by Detroit EMS Medic 21 to Detroit Receiving Hospital for treatment.
Please keep this young man in your prayers.
