Fire crews were sent into the fire to find an estimated 19 Firefighters who were unaccounted for this evening. Last reports are that they have been located and multiple EMS helicopters have been requested. The hospital was put on alert to expect several injured firefighters but did not know their conditions or the extent of their injuries.
