He Locklear was probably gone by the time we got there." He said the first firefighters arrived just three minutes after the fire was reported. Investigators said the fire apparently started when an electric oven overheated, igniting adjacent cabinets, Flynn said. The fire spread through the basement kitchen and up the stairs to the second floor.

Flynn said the fire was first reported at 6:30 p.m. by a neighbor who reported seeing smoke coming from a house next door to Locklear's house. Engine 51, the only unit stationed at East Monument Street and Highland Avenue, had been called away under the city's "first responder" policy after a call for medical assistance was received. Two other trucks that would uals for ambulance service, Flynn said. The costs are borne on the general tax rate.

Roylance Evening Sun Staff Baltimore fire officials say a 21-year-old Baltimore man who died 'Saturday after his kitchen caught fire probably could not have been saved even if a fire truck stationed two blocks from his house had been available to fight the fire. The truck was tied up answering a call for medical assistance from a woman who turned out to have a "mild fever and swollen glands, fire "officials said. She later refused 'transportation to a hospital.

Fire Department spokesman Patrick Flynn said Eric Lock-lear, of the 3200 block of E. Monu- ment was found in his basement apartment after firefighters from a station a mile away arrived and ex-; tinguished the fire. Locklear was unconscious and not breathing. He was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he was pro- nounced dead at 7:47 p.m. 3 Flynn said that even if the neigh said.

City ambulances make 100,000 runs a year, 274 a day, he said. "I think they city ambulance crews only transport about 52 percent of their patients," he said. "There are a lot of patients who are gone left the scene on arrival, handled by police, refused service or false alarms Probably only 15 percent require advanced life support." So dispatchers sent Truck 20 and Engine 3, from a station in the 6700 block of Pulaski Highway, about a mile from the fire at Locklear's apartment, Flynn said. Despite the distance, Flynn said, Truck 20 arrived at the fire scene at 6:33 p.m., just three minutes after the fire was reported. Under the "first responder" policy, fire trucks respond to medical emergencies where ambulances are likely to be more than five minutes getting to the scene, or where the calls involve heart attacks, shootings or other emergencies where a quick response may be critical.

The Fire Department has produced public service announcements to try to educate residents not to use emergency services for non-emergency problems, but the practice continues, Flynn said. Even so, he said, "We ha'ven't seen it as a problem because we have enough units where we've got backups. When those two fire alarms came in at the same time, they transferred units in from other areas to help fill in the gap."

In this case, Flynn said, the nearest ambulance was more than five minutes away. After emergency personnel examined the.

The other two fatalities were Atwell's wife, Gertrude, 62, and the couple's daughter-in-law, Shirley Leona Cadd, 36, of White Marsh. Calvin Atwell was a retired meat cutter and his wife was a retired glass inspector.

They have included holdups in the Kingsville, Parkville, Pikesville and Catonsville sections of Baltimore County.
