arson detection
• The responsibility of a fireman is “arson
detection” rather than arson investigation.
• The fact that every trained fireman cannot
also be a trained investigator does not
mean that he cannot play a highly
important part in detecting many arson
cases.
• What then the firemen should do when
responding to a fire scene?
I. Observing general conditions at the
scene of the fire.
A. Upon Approaching the Fire
1. Observing the elements. The record of a
fire should include weather conditions.
