Fires strike suddenly and unexpectedly. Because you’re unable to predict them, it can be hard to know what to do when one starts. If you don’t move quickly, then you or your loved ones could be seriously hurt – even killed. Last year, there were over 3,500 fire-related fatalities in the United States alone. That’s over nine people a day.
