[californiadisasters] 19 Firefighters Reported Killed - R.I.P. Granite Mnt. Hotshots

The Secret List www.FireFighterCloseCalls.com It's with shock and regret that we advise you that 19 Firefighters have died in the Line of Duty. The Prescott Fire Department is stating that 19 firefighters have died while operating at the Yarnell Hill fire tonight night. They're part of the Prescott Granite Mountain Hot Shots.  http://www.cityofprescott.net/services/fire/hotshots/ The wildfire was likely caused by a lightning strike Saturday night. The Yarnell Hill fire, about 35 miles southwest of Prescott, has burned about 1,300 acres and forced the evacuation of 50 homes. The fire started Friday and has not yet burned down any structures, but Sunday night firefighters pushed the blaze back away from communities, hoping to keep the blaze from overtaking any homes.  Much more to follow.RIP. Take Care-BE CAREFUL. The Secret List 6-30-13 / 2246 hours www.FireFighterCloseCalls.Com
