Hazard Fire Department

Hazard Fire Department was dispatched to 1 Community College Drive, HCTC - Jolly building in response to a report of heavy smoke in the building. Engine 1, Ladder 2, Engine 3 and Rescue 2 respond to the scene.
On-scene HFD Fire Captain assisted with evacuations and scene control. Reportedly, electrical wiring arced off as a technician was performing maintenance inside the building causing him to fall from a ladder, and create heavy smoke related to the electrical wiring and components. HFD cleared the building, ventilated all of the smoke out and assessed the scene while Perry County EMS tended to the patient.
At this time there is no threat of fire or smoke at the college and the scene has been turned over to HCTC maintenance supervisors.
A guy in maintenance said the worker wasn't hurt. Maybe not hurt bad. Falling off ladder and EMS I'm not sure whole story.
