FIREHOUSE FRIDAY: Fire safety awareness with Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services

SILVER SPRING, Md. - In this week's edition of Firehouse Friday, FOX 5 joined the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service to understand how destructive a fire can be without water sprinklers.

FOX 5's Mike Thomas stopped by Leisure World in Silver Spring, Maryland, for a demonstration and fire safety tips for residents.

"My ultimate goal is to prevent a 911 call through outreach and education that is through fire safety outreach and education as well as health care and personal health," said Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Chief Scott Goldstein.

"We want you to be like a firefighter, know what your environment is like, know what your fire safety risk is where you are," said Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Battalion Chief Jim Resnick.
