Residential building fire

On July 2nd Engines 1, 4, 5, Ladder 2, Ambulances 4 & 5, & the Batt Chief were dispatched to a single story residential for a building fire. E-5 & A-5 were the first to arrive, reported smoke showing, and laid a line in. Lt. France reported a working fire in the basement and 5's crew stretched a handline into the basement. After venitlating the building the base of the fire was located and knocked down. All the occupants were out of the home and the only loss of life was that of an 8 mo. old python. I am hoping to get some pictures soon and wil post them the moment I do.
