On March 29, 2013, Officer Bram and Officer Lindaman responded to a call of a house on fire. When they arrived on the scene, they spoke with a mother who told them that her five children were still inside the burning house. The house was a very large, old, multi-story dwelling. Smoke was pouring from the entire house. Officer Bram and Lindaman ran into the smoke-filled house, located the children, and safely removed them from the residence. Some of the children were found sleeping on a bed in a room filled with the smoke from the fire.
