Chicago Working Fire, 3-10-15

This from Josh Boyajian:

Tuesday I took in a fire at 5038 s May. Battalion 15 arrived and had smoke showing from the attic of a 2.5 sty balloon frame. Fire started on the first floor in the ceiling and traveled up the walls and into the attic. Engine 50 had 2 lines lead out, Truck 18 had their main to the roof. Here are some shots.

  That’s a house we refer to as a “Polish battleship.”
