Das 4 Alarm Feuer brach in dem Restaurant aus und breitete sich zu angrenzenden Geschaeften aus. Ersten berichten zufolge sollen sich die feuerwehrmaenner im dem Gebaeude aufgehalten haben als es zu einem Einsturz kam, wohl auf grund einer Klimaanlage. Originale Nachricht: 2 Boston Firefighters were killed in the Line of Duty this evening at a commercial building fire. The fire went to four-alarms in West Roxbury. It started around 2100 in the Hi Ho Chinese Restaurant and spread to nearby stores. Initial reports indicate that firefighters were inside the building when there was a collapse that involved a roof air conditioner unit. The Firefighters were from E-30 and L-25. More to follow.

| Hallo, ihr noch schnell ein up date. Leider habe ich i.M. keine Zeit das zu Uebersetzen, sorry. Hey... Here is an update on last nights fire that tragically killed 2 Boston Firefighters and injuring others. Initially, there were reports of 2 other Firefighters on life support, but all surviving injured members are now reported to be non life threatening. The Firefighters who gave their lives in the Line of Duty last night are Paul Cahill (55) and Warren Payne (53), who were assigned at Engine 30 and Ladder 25. Numerous other Firefighters were transported with non-life-threatening injuries. Boston Fire Chief Kevin MacCurtain said several firefighters from the first due crew that arrived on scene entered the building to attack the fire. Civilians were all out of the building but the heavy smoke and fire conditions in the initial stages of operations caused the members to become disoriented. "When they arrived they had heavy fire in the Thai restaurant with heavy smoke conditions on the block," MacCurtain said. "They advanced their lines into the store, and they became trapped and they were disoriented and they couldn't find their way out." Chief MacCurtain also said that a 3-ton air conditioning unit partially crashed through the roof of the restaurant but that it was unclear what role this played in the firefighter deaths and injuries. He said the first crews of firefighters quickly became trapped and disoriented. Other crews found the trapped firefighters and pulled them out. FF Payne was the father of two and FF Cahill was the married father of two. Both had 25 years on the job. Five Boston firefighters have died during or after fires since 1994. They include David Milton, who died earlier this year when he got home from a shift at a firehouse; David Packard, who died of a heart attack after a fire in 1999, Dick Murphy, died of a heart attack after a fire, also in 1999; James Ellis, who died from injuries after he fell down a fire pole when responding to a fire call in 1996 and Steve Minehan, who was killed in a warehouse fire in Charlestown (Boston) in 1994. Steve was killed following a search for other missing Firefighters in that fire. We are closely monitoring the conditions of the 2 Firefighters who are in critically condition and will update as applicable here and on our home page. Our deepest sympathies go out to all effected but especially the Payne and Cahill families and the members of the BFD E-30/L-25. Take Care-BE CAREFUL.
