BALTIMORE — Remembrances have begun pouring in for the three Baltimore City firefighters who died battling a blaze in a vacant row house Monday morning.
Four firefighters were trapped when the building, which had been unoccupied since 2010, collapsed during the fire. One of them survived. Firefighter John McMaster was on life support at the hospital as of Monday evening.
A previous fire at the same home, located at 205 South Stricker St. in the Mount Clare area, injured three firefighters in 2015 and resulted in the building being condemned. The homeowners had also received a citation in 2020 from the city housing department for failing to complete a required annual registration.
