LEDE PHOTO - January 9, 2017 DeKalb County: DeKalb County authorities are investigating a massive fire that ripped through an abandoned doctorÕs office and shut down a busy road for more thanÊthree hours Monday. Officials thought someone who was trying to escape frigid temperatures might have beenÊtrapped inside the two-story building in the 4800 block of Redan Road, DeKalb fire Capt. Eric Jackson said. They later learned that was not the case, he said. ÒThe DeKalb County Fire Department got the initial call just after 6:15 a.m. Monday about a blaze near South Hairston and Redan roads. ÒIt did come out as a reported entrapment,Ó Jackson said. ÒBut there was so much fire involvement, our firefighters could not make entry.Ó The fire ripped through the two-story building and left behind a cloud of heavy smoke and raging flames in the 4800 block of Redan Road. Firefighting efforts shut down Redan Road, east of South Hairston Road more than three hours, accordingÊto theÊWSB 24-hour Traffic Center. ÒWe sometimes have to shut down a main thoroughfare to obtain water supply, which is what we did with the help of DeKalb police,Ó Jackson said. There were some delays accessing that water. Crews initially attempted to connect to a fire hydrant, but a stem that allows water to flow up through the hydrant broke. ÒSo that put us in another mode to have to look for a secondary means of water supply,Ó Jackson said. Firefighters did find a hydrant across the street and another at the far end of a nearby shopping center. TheyÊknocked down most of the flames byÊ7:30 a.m., but Redan Road remained closed just before 9:30 a.m. JOHN SPINK /JSPINK@AJC.COM
