TUKWILA FIRE DEPARTMENT INCIDENT REPORT NARRATIVE
Date: 03/31/99 Incident: 99-001031-000
We responded to a report of illegal drug lab chemicals in the trunk of
a police impounded vehicle at the City Shops. On our arrival, we waited
5 minutes for the police to arrive. When they arrived we advised them
to call the EPA. They did and were told that they would call them back.
The police called the EPA back after waiting a period of time and were
told that the contact person had gone home for the day. Chief Alderson
called the EPA and was told that we could sample the chemicals with Ph
paper, overpack them and take them to the fire station where they would
pick them up in the morning.
We suited FF's Rydeen and Hickey in level B suits. This team went to
the trunk of the vehicle and identified the chemicals by reading their
labels. We segregated these chemicals into two categories. The first
group was poisons. The chemicals encountered were 98% to 99% strength.
Some were labeled toxic or carcinigenic. The size of each bottle was no
bigger than 100 grams but the majority was 20 grams. These were placed
in a 1 gallon evidence can filled with rice hull ash and labeled Poison
and can number 1. The rest of the chemicals were ph tested if the label
was not present and placed in a 1 gallon metal evidence can filled with
rice hull ash and labled as can number 2. Can number three had one
bottle of nitrogen that we found later in the incident.
We noticed a beer can that felt as if it was full, but, there was a
bolt protruding from the side of the can and through a hole in the side
of the can there appeared to be a solid white substance filling the
can. We placed the can at the rear of the car and notified the police
that it could be a potential explosive device. The bomb squad was
called in. They x-rayed the can and saw that there was a bag like item
in the center wrapped with wires. They were going to open the can with
a explosive device. When told that if it was a bomb and that the types
of poisons we encountered were used in it. It could make a very toxic
condition. They decided to x-ray the can once more using a different
method. When they did the saw that the contents were jewlry and indian
arrowheads. They then opened the can by hand and decided that it was
not an explosive device.
The fire department transported the chemicals to station 51 and placed
them in the apparatus bay. The Lt. at 51's was notified. A list of
chemicals in the cans is with the cans and a copy ius attached to this
report.
