BOYNTON BEACH FL 33435 Cell Phone: (561) 340-9730 Complaint Number: 18-1121 INCIDENT SUMMARY ON 05/30/18 AT 1203 HOURS WE RESPONDED TO 3900 N. OCEAN BLVD., THE L'HERMITAGE CONDOMINIUM, REFERENCE A REPORT OF A FIRE ALARM RECEIVED VIA THE PALM BEACH COUNTY FIRE RESCUE PAGER. UPON ARRIVAL AT 1203 HOURS WE SAW SEVERAL RESIDENTS STANDING IN THE LOBBY. THERE WAS WATER LEAKING FROM THE CEILING AREA IN FRONT OF THE ELEVATOR. THERE WERE LARGE PUDDLES OF WATER ON THE LOBBY TILE FLOOR. THE DELRAY BEACH FIRE DEPT, ARRIVED MOMENTARILY. THEIR RUN NUMBER WAS DB18006750. AFTER FINDING THE ALARM PANEL IN THE FIRST FLOOR IT INDICATED THE FIRE ALARM ACTIVATION WAS COMING FROM UNIT 3A. WE WENT TO THAT UNITAND DISCOVERED THAT THE t2/ UNIT'S FLOORS WERE FLOODED. THE KITCHEN DRAWERS WERE FULL OF WATER THE RESIDENT'S OF THE UNIT, 89 YEAR OLD JOHN CARROLLAND HIS 87 YEAR OLD WIFE, DENISE CARROLL, WERE IN THE BEDROOM GETTING DRESSED. ALSO PRESENT IN THE UNIT AT THIS TIME WERE THE CARROLL'S HOUSEKEEPERS, EVELYNE GARCON AND HER HUSBAND TOUISSAINT LEVEQUE, WHO HAD COME TO THE CARROLL'S RESIDENCE TO DO HOUSEKEEPING. MRS. CARROLL SAID THAT SHE HAD HEARD A BEEPING NOISE COMING FROM A FIRE SPRINKLER IN THE KITCHEN SINCE 2130 HOURS ON 05/29/18. ON 05/30/18 AT APPROXIMATELY 1200 HOURS MRS. CARROLL DECIDED TO SEE IF SHE COULD SILENCE THE BEEPING BY USING A SCREWDRIVER ON THE FIRE SPRINKLER. SHE ASKED GARCON TO HOLD A STEP LADDER WHILE MRS. CARROLL CLIMBED ON IT TO REACH THE FIRE SPRINKLER. MRS. CARROLL TOUCHED "SOMETHING" WHICH WAS LATER DETERMINED TO BE A GLASS SENSOR ON THE FIRE SPRINKLER AND THAT CAUSED THE FIRE ALARM TO BE ACTIVATED, A LARGE AMOUNT OF BLACKISH IN COLOR WATER TO DROP FROM THE CEILING IN THE AREA OF THE FIRE SPRINKLER, AND ALL THE UNIT'S FIRE SPRINKLER'S TO TURN ON AND START SPRAYING WATER AS THEY HAD RECEIVED THE SIGNAL THAT THERE WAS A FIRE IN THE UNIT. THE BLACKISH IN COLOR WATER SPLASHED ONTO MRS. CARROLL'S FACE/EYES AND GARCON'S FACE AND EYES. CAPT. STAAB OF THE DELRAY BEACH FIRE DEPT. AND HIS CREW WERE ABLE TO SHUT OFF THE FIRE SUPPRESSION WATER SYSTEM WHICH RESULTED IN STOPPING THE FLOW OF WATER VIA THE FIRE SPRINKLERS INTO THE UNIT. HE THEN CLOSED OFF THE VALVE AT THE KITCHEN FIRE SPRINKLER. FIREFIGHTER/PARAMEDIC M. HALL FLUSHED MRS. CARROLL'S AND GARCON'S EYES WITH AN EYE RINSE AS A RESULT OF THEM COMPLAINING THAT THE BLACKISH WATER GOT INTO THEIR EYES AND ON THEIR FACES. THEY WERE EACH GOING TO SEEK FURTHER MEDICAL ATTENTION ATA LATER TIME. I INTERVIEWED THE BUILDING PROPERTY MANAGER, MARCY CRESSWELL, AND SHE TOLD ME THE FOLLOWING. CRESSWELL SAID THAT ON 05/30/18 ATAPPROXIMATELY 1130 HOURS SHE WAS MAKING HER ROUNDS AND WHEN PASSING BY UNIT 3A SHE HER A BEEPING SOUND COMING FROM INSIDE UNIT 3A. SHE KNOCKED ON THE DOOR AND MRS. CARROLL TOLD HER THAT THE BEEPING WAS COMING FROM THE KITCHEN FIRE SPRINKLER. CRESSWELL TOLD HER THAT IT WAS COMING FROM A KITCHEN APPLIANCE NOT FROM THE SPRINKLER. CRESSWELL ASKED MRS. CARROLL IF SHE HAD ANY OF THE OWNER'S MANUALS SO THEY COULD CHECK WHERE THE BEEPING WAS COMING FROM ON THE APPLIANCE. MRS. CARROLL WAS TO LOOK FOR THE OWNER'S MANUALS FOR SOME OF HER APPLIANCES. CRESSWELL LEFT TO FINISH COMPLETING HER ROUNDS AND ASKED MRS. CARROLL AGAIN NOT TO TOUCH THE FIRE SPRINKLER AS THE BEEPING WAS NOT COMING FROM IT. I NEXT INTERVIEWED GARCON AND SHE TOLD ME THE FOLLOWING. GARCON CONFIRMED WHAT CRESSWELL TOLD ME AND SAID THAT MRS. CARROLL STILL INSISTED ON CHECKING THE FIRE SPRINKLER SO MRS. CARROLL GOT A SCREWDRIVER AND ASKED GARCON TO HOLD THE LADDER WHILE MRS. CARROLL CHECKED THE SPRINKLER. WHEN MRS. CARROLL TOUCHED THE SPRINKLER THE WATER FELL, THE ALARM WAS ACTIVATED AND ALL THE SPRINKLERS WERE TURNED ON. LEVEQUE GAVE THE SAME ACCOUNT OF WHAT OCCURRED AS STATED BY GARCON. THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE WATER IN UNIT 3A IS NOT KNOWN AS OF THIS TIME. CRESSWELL SAID THAT THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE INSIDE UNIT 2A AS SOME WATER HAD FLOWED DOWN FROM UNIT 3A. I WENT INSIDE UNIT 2A WITH CRESSWELL TO CHECK THE DAMAGE. THERE WERE PUDDLES OF WATER IN THE KITCHEN AND IN THE FRONT DOOR AIR CONDITIONING CLOSET. CRESSWELL NOTIFIED UNIT 2A'S RESIDENT, ROBERT DIXON WHO IS PRESENTLYAT HIS OTHER HOME, ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE IN UNIT 2A IS ALSO UNDETERMINED AS OF THIS TIME. CRESSWELL NOTIFIED SERVPRO AND THEY HAD RESPONDED TO UNITS 2AAND 3A TO CLEANUP THE WATER DAMAGE. CAPT. TIMOTHY GARITO WHO IS A FIRE INVESTIGATOR FOR THE DELRAY BEACH FIRE DEPT. RESPONDED TO THE SCENE TO CONDUCT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT'S INVESTIGATION.
