Injured Fireman Taken to Buffalo

One of the Bradford City firefighters injured while battling a blaze on Euclid Avenue this afternoon is being treated in a Buffalo hospital.

Firefighter Todd McClain breathed in hot smoke and gasses, and is being treated at ECMC.

Firefighter Greg Lewis was hurt when he fell from the roof of the house. He was treated at Bradford Regional Medical Center and released.

Lt. Chris Angell said firefighters were called to 122 Euclid Avenue at 2:15 p.m. Heavy smoke and flames were showing when they arrived.

Angell said they called a second alarm, which means all off duty personnel are called in and Derrick City is called to stand by at the East Bradford Station. Tower One, Engine One and Engine Two, along with 15 firefighters, were on the scene for almost 2 1/2 hours.

The house was a total loss.

Angell said Fire Chief Boo Coder is trying to track down the owners.
