Shaker Heights Firefighters Stop, Drop and Roll in Training (Video)

Fire department takes time this week to use the Ohio Fire Academy's mobile search and rescue trailer

Over 100 firefighters from Cleveland Heights and University Heights took time this week to stop, drop and roll in Ohio Fire Academy's mobile search and rescue training lab.

The trailer, which was delivered on a semi earlier this week, has two levels inside: the bottom designed to look like an apartment, and the top consisting of a low-ceilinged maze with several obstacles that could be seen in a real fire.

Watch the video above to learn more about the training conducted this week, and next week, watch Patch to hear from one of the firefighters who was filmed going through the maze Thursday.
