What is the first duty of the investigator at the scene of an explosion?

What will be an ideal response?


The first duty of the investigator is to secure the scene of the explosion. First responders to the explosion should establish and maintain physical control of the structure and surrounding areas. Unauthorized persons should be prevented from entering the scene or touching blast debris remote from the scene because the critical evidence from an explosion (whether accidental or criminal) may be very small and may be easily disturbed or moved by someone passing through.
