07/08/17 San Antonio, TX 100 blk 9th St.—Just as
the night life was starting to kick of, and hotel guest
were getting ready for bed, an Automatic Fire Alarm
was sounded at the Wyndham Hotel in the 100blk of
9th St. Engine 4 arrived on scene and was greeted by
the hotel manager saying the 3rd floor was full of
smoke. Engine 4 quickly upgraded the AFA to a work-
ing high rise fire. Engine 4 made their way up to the
"fire floor" and upon investigation, found a discharged
dry-chem fire extinguisher, but could not locate any
fire. Eventually it was determined that there was no fire
and just a discharged fire extinguisher. Crews were
quickly placed back in service and available. Compa-
nies on the high rise ticket were EN04, EN01, EN03,
EN06, EN11, PL01, PL11, TK06, HR11, M06, BC06,
& the Fire Shift Commander.
