Last update I just received (9:15pm) is that both victims expired.

Everyone is still at the scene, but nothing new on the scanner. Just some sporadic FD ops activity and some EMS activity, rigs staging upon their return from the hospital. I think there may he another fireman receiving medical attention or being transported.
