Chicago FD Still Alarm 3-23-13

Here's what Steve Redick shared:

4046 Van Buren – Saturday. I responded to this call because it was advertised as a fire in a building marked with a red ‘X’. This was the first time I encountered the new safety marking system in action. The markings are either a red square, a square with one slash, or a square with an X—each representing different levels of danger. Before any interior operations can begin, the area must be assessed and approved. I think this kind of signage will become a common sight on fire scenes in the future. I also got a good shot of one of the new utility vehicles.
