## Resource

Anchorage Fire Department raced against time Saturday night as five structure fires erupted across the city—three in Fairview alone—each escalating quickly and tied to dangerous gas leaks or tampering. Crews juggled back-to-back blazes, including an abandoned building, a construction site, a tampered business meter, and a catastrophic explosion that ripped through an East Anchorage home. Though no injuries occurred, the department was pushed to its limits, forcing medical calls to wait for distant crews. Gas-related connections in three of the five fires underscore a critical safety concern as investigators work to secure the exploded home.
