Statement on fatal fire, importance of working smoke alarms
Alderman Scott Spiker March 22, 2021
Saturday morning a tragedy occurred in the 13th District when a house fire near South 15th Place and West Oklahoma turned fatal and cost a 25-year-old man his life. I send my deepest condolences to the family and friends of the individual who passed during this trying time.
In the wake of this event, I will be joining the MFD this afternoon to canvas the nearby neighborhood in which the fire occurred to offer fire safety materials, check for working smoke alarms and install new ones as needed. I want to thank the MFD for their efforts in responding to this incident, and for their diligence in providing community outreach across the city. Their work helps make our community a safer place.
