TVF&R is investigating a fire in a bathroom at West Linn High School. One staff member at the school was transported to Willamette Falls Hospital to be evaluated after inhaling smoke.
Firefighters from TVF&R\'s Bolton Station 58 were dispatched to West Linn High School at 11:01 after a fire was reported in the bathroom. Firefighters arrived to find the school evacuated and smoke in the building. Firefighters quickly made their way to the bathroom and ensured that the fire was out while other firefighters evaluated one employee who had inhaled smoke while extinguishing the fire. The employee was transported to Willamette Falls Hospital for precautionary reasons.
Firefighters determined that the fire did not spread to the rest of the building. It took more than an hour for firefighters from TVF&R and Clackamas Fire to successfully clear smoke from the building using fans and the building\'s HVAC system.
A TVF&R investigator is working with West Linn Police to determine the cause of the fire.
