Ramona McDonald's fire

1 post in this topic

Major damage though not destroyed, to the Ramona, CA., McDonald's on Main Street, early this morning.  Never went 2nd alarm as far as I could see.  Mostly smoke/water damage. It was noteworthy to see that Santee FD's TDA, T4, responded all the way to Ramona for the assignment. San Diego Fire-Rescue looks like they sent T40. In my mind, those are long runs for those two trucks. I sorta would think Poway would dispatch a truck, though maybe theirs is down or was already committed.  Way back I thought Ramona had a 50' ladder/squirt/stick?  It was an E-One Hurricane if I can recall. Seems Ramona and that area is truck poor, and the entire East County sorta seems 'rescue' poor (dedicated rescues, technical/USAR, not paramedic, I never agreed with calling a medic/EMT rig a "rescue" like some agencies).
