Vacant Dwelling Going Throughout Wesson At McGraw 10/30/09

As heavy rains fell dampening most of Devil's Night those that still wanted to keep the tradition alive successfully lit this vacant dwelling on Wesson. The night before they successfully burned down the house that was next door. This was a challenging fire to photograph due to the heavy downpour during the fire which would not allow for flash photography and proved to be a difficult situation to protect the cameras. The DFD knocked it down using the monitors on two of the engines as well as an interior attack.
