Yes, fighting fires is dangerous. Can't blame the firefighters for not fighting a fire that they weren't legally or contractually required to fight, though fire departments can and do often volunteer to fight fires in other jurisdictions, so they could have (and perhaps should have, but that depends on the details of the fire).
