Emergency crews in Garner put out a house fire Wednesday morning at 8213 Bryan Road.

Dude... you spent WAY too much time dissecting my off-the-cuff comment.

the word douse is appropriate to use, if it was your your house you sure as heck would agree to the use of "dousing" wouldnt you? douse 1 also dowse (dous) Pronunciation Key v. doused also dowsed, dous·ing also dows·ing, dous·es also dows·es

v. tr.

To plunge into liquid; immerse. See Synonyms at dip. To wet thoroughly; drench. To put out (a light or fire); extinguish

"Garner crews douse house fire"

The word 'douse' might be appropriate. But it just doesn't sound right. Makes it sound like the Good'ole Garner Fire Department was working hard throwing their buckets of water on the fire.
