Josh Boyajian took in a house fire in Cicero Sunday night and had the following description:

Cicero had a basement fire tonight at 1225 59th ave. Engine 1 arrived and had heavy smoke showing from the basement, Truck 2 took sector 1 and laddered the roof. Engine 1 made a quick knock with dropping a 2 1/2 through the back door.  I snapped a few pics off my phone.
