From Chris Skrabel:
Followed truck company 9 from joliet to a large mansion-style house fire. Good knock by joliet, held to their working fire response.
From patch.com:
At 4:31 p.m., the Joliet Fire Department responded to 606 Rookery Lane for a structure fire. The first units arrived within 3 minutes of the call and were met with heavy smoke and fire coming from the two-story single family dwelling.
The building was unoccupied and under construction, and all workers were able to get out of the building. Multiple hose lines were used inside to extinguish fire on the second floor. Other crews performed water supply, search, ventilation, salvage and overhaul, safety, and support functions.
The fire was declared under control at 5:40 p.m.
Crews from stations 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 responded to the scene. There were no injuries to report.
Last September, that the Joliet City Council made 606 Rookery Lane a public nuisance
