Firehouse Let’s find out

what happened!

After the fire:

Your fire truck was too big for the firehouse so it got stuck!

Many classrooms had burned by the time you arrived at Classical High School.

No one could help because they did not know how to use your old fire extinguisher.

Your head was well protected and your hose was perfect.
