They responded to a house and car fire, only to have shots fired upon them, killing two and wounding another two.
Two police officers were also wounded during a fire fight with the shooter.
SWAT was called in, and searched the nearby houses, eventually finding the shooter, dead from a gunshot wound.
It is unclear if the gunman shot himself or was hit in the exchange with police.
By the time it was deemed safe, for the firefighters, other houses were burning.
In all four houses and one car were destroyed and four homes were damaged.
Police believe that the shooter purposefully lit the fire, and then waited in ambush for firefighters to respond.
