This from Josh Boyajian:

Bensenville had a full still today at 202 s Mason. Engine 18 had heavy smoke showing O/A from the attic. Battalion 17 requested a full still which brought rigs from surrounding departments including Carol Stream D/C 28. I arrived well into the fire. Here are some of my pictures.

This from Dennis McGuire, Jr.:

The Alsip FD was toned out for a fire at 12813 Kenneth this evening and arrived to heavy smoke from a 2 sty Ordinary condo building 50×75. First engine laid a lead to the hydrant and advanced 2 lines into the structure making a quick knock on the fire. Command did elevate the alarm to a full still but struck it out 10 minutes later.
