Investigators have worked tirelessly on this case, piecing information and evidence together. In addition to our Blue Shift personnel on the scene and members of our command staff, the following agencies also responded: Hamilton County 911’s Incident Dispatch Unit, Hamilton County EMS, CPD, Public Works, Tennessee American Water, CFD’s Fleet Division, CFD’s Investigations Division, CFD Special Operations, Chattanooga-Hamilton County Rescue’s Rehab Unit, Chattanooga Land Development Office, city building inspectors and the Hamilton County Office of Emergency Management. Our Tri-State Mutual Aid Association partners from across the region filled in at our fire halls and answered calls while the CFD worked this major incident. It was a very taxing operation for everyone involved. Twenty one of the CFD’s 26 companies were on the scene- more than 100 personnel. Ladder trucks were placed on all sides of the buildings for elevated master streams to contain the fire and protect adjacent structures. At that time, everyone was evacuated and defensive firefighting operations got underway. Officials from the church advised that the vacant buildings were structurally unsafe. Firefighters made entry multiple times to locate the fire and they attacked flames in several locations between the first and third floor. Due to the conditions and size of the structure and adjoining/surrounding buildings, more companies were brought to the scene. Crews from Station 5 in Highland Park saw the smoke from the fire hall as they were leaving and found heavy, black smoke coming from all four sides of the church, as well as the roof, on arrival. It is located near the corner of Union Ave and South Orchard Knob Avenue. The property is now part of the Redemption to the Nations Church campus. Companies were called to 1906 Bailey Avenue on Friday, Jat 7:13 PM after a passerby spotted smoke and notified 911. The three-alarm fire sparked a huge response by Chattanooga firefighters and many other agencies, spanning 24 hours and resulting in parts of the buildings being torn down due to fire damage. The CFD is asking for the public’s help identifying the person seen in the pictures as investigators continue building their arson case.
Still photos taken from surveillance footage show a man on a bicycle in the area at the time of the fire. Chattanooga Fire Department investigators say the blaze was intentionally set and they are looking for a person of interest in the case. The local landmarks were central parts of the former Highland Park Baptist Church and Tennessee Temple University. In Christ’s Love, Rev.There are new developments in the investigation into the massive fire that heavily damaged the Phillips Chapel and Chauncey-Goode Auditorium in Downtown Chattanooga.
