Michael Lee DePauw
A 30-year veteran fire captain, age 51, died of a heart attack while leading his engine company during initial interior fire attack at a two-alarm residential fire on December 5, 2002. On December 5, 2002 at approximately 8:10 p.m., Dallas Fire-Rescue received a call reporting a fire in a residence at 6737 Briar Cove Drive. Captain Michael DePauw and his crew on Engine 56 were dispatched and arrived at the fire at approximately 8:17 p.m. Fire was found in the attic area of the two-story residence. Captain DePauw was with firefighters from Engine 56 and other units in a second floor bedroom when he collapsed. He was immediately carried down the stairs and out to the front lawn where cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was started. Firefighters used an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) to attempt to restore Captain DePauw’s heart rhythm. Two treatments were administered without success when paramedics began other advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) measures. DePauw failed to respond to treatment. Captain DePauw was placed in a department ALS Rescue unit (ambulance), which left the scene of the fire and arrived at the hospital at approximately 8:41 p.m. ACLS procedures had continued during the trip to Medical City Hospital. The Dallas County Medical Examiner ruled that Captain DePauw died of atherosclerotic and hypertensive cardiovascular disease. Captain Michael L. DePauw served in Dallas Fire-Rescue for over 30 years. He is survived by his wife and five children. Introduction The Texas State Fire Marshal’s Office was notified of the death of Dallas Fire-Rescue Captain Michael Lee DePauw on December 6, 2002. State Fire Marshal’s Office (SFMO) Chief Inspector Richard L. Bishop was assigned as the lead investigator. Bishop traveled to Dallas Fire-Rescue on December 9, 2002 to conduct an investigation of the incident. Upon arrival, Bishop was advised that Michael Lee DePauw, a Dallas Fire-Rescue Captain, had collapsed and gone into cardiac arrest while attacking a residential fire. DePauw was transported from the scene to Medical City Hospital in Dallas, Texas, where he was pronounced dead a short time later. When Bishop arrived, the Dallas County Medical Examiner was in the process of conducting the autopsy. SFMO LODD Investigation # 03-116-12 Page 3 The SFMO commenced an LODD investigation under the authority of Texas Government Code Section 417.0075. The statute requires SFMO to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death of the firefighter, including the cause and origin of the fire, the condition of the structure, and the suppression operation, to determine the factors that may have contributed to the death of the firefighter. The State Fire Marshal is required to coordinate the investigative efforts of local government officials and may enlist established fire service organizations and private entities to assist in the investigation. The National Fallen Firefighter's Foundation and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Fire Fighter Fatality Investigation and Prevention Program were notified. Origin and Cause Investigation Investigators from Dallas Fire-Rescue determined that the two-story, single-family residential fire was accidental in nature and originated in the attic’s electrical wiring.
