The Grosse family wasn't at home at the time, or it would have been even more surprising when Deputy Fire Chief Greg Robbins directed his crew to break through the door in their most energetic life-saving manner!
The Chief truly isn't a marauding maniac. He had every reason to believe the address he'd been given was that of a vacant home, owned by the city and cleared for use in training drills. After all, when the crew arrives, there is usually some smoke or fire to verify that they have the right domicile.
The Chief and crew have been apologizing profusely, and of course they will pay the $1,000 in damages. On the bright side, I'm guessing the family will get very fast response time should they ever need it.
