Woodburn Fire Crews Battle Flames From Gervais Structure Fire

(GERVAIS, Ore.) - Woodburn Fire District responded to a reported house fire at 454 Rondeau Court in Gervais Tuesday morning.

Lt. Jeremy Peil with the Woodburn Fire District, says the first arriving engine reported heavy black smoke and flames showing from the rear of the structure.

"The crew initiated a transitional attack, knocking the flames down from the exterior and transitioning interior," Peil said.

The Woodburn Fire District responded with 3 engines, ladder truck and air support unit. Mt. Angel and Marion County Fire District #1 responded with 1 engine each and Hubbard Fire District provided coverage at Woodburn's Headquarter's Station with an engine.

Peil says the fire is still under investigation, but preliminary investigation indicates that it may have started in a small detached shed equipped with commercial grade kitchen appliances.

This is my home. It has now been rebuilt, but what of the video? Has it been permanently deleted to the account holder who was accused of "copyright-infringement"? If possible, I would like a digital copy of the video.

Editor: Luis, the video disappeared with 500+ others we had posted over a false accusation that was not properly vetted by YouTube. The truth is that we cover news in places like Palestine without a pro-Israel point of view. It sounds crazy, but YouTube was presented with information by Michael Hart stating we had permission to use the music, but all efforts to have the account restored. I need you to get in touch with Jerry Freeman, he may have this clip and I could also somewhere else and you would be welcome to it if we could dig it up. I think YouTube is terrible for having purged our important reports, simply because we report the truth about Israel's war crimes. My email is tim@salem-news.com
