To Whom It May Concern:
This statement is a summary of my recollection of the events during Incident #98-
184 on the morning of January 21, 1998, at 579 Evans St., Oshkosh.
Engine 15 was dispatched to the above address for a report of a lockout with
possible heating problem. I was officer in charge of the engine that day. Shortly after 7
J
our arrival, I was met by the owner of the building, Mr. Roger Coates, who requested
that I accompany him to examine the temperatures in the apartments inside. I do not
recall the precise temperatures observed, only that they were not so low as to pose a
t danger t property. After entering the lower apartment, Mr. Coates plugged in a carbon
monoxide detector he had brought with him and lit the gas oven. I also observed that the /Ye
tf h
heating thermostat was loosened from the wall and hanging by its wire At this point a
0 disagreement developed between Mr. Coates and his tenant, during which Mr. Coates
t i 7 suggested to his tenant that he use the electric wall heaters in the a.artment, to which his o g
I tenant re used. Upon de ermming that the Fire Department was no longer nee. es, I ,0
called for a unit of the Police Department to stand by in case mediation or other
a m/ resolution was in order. Engine 15 cleared the scene upon arrival of the police. eeeArytetV
