This from Chi-Town Fire Photos:

Working Fire in Cicero on 11/25/24 @ 1620 s 58th Ct. Sounds like they chased fire in the walls of this 1.5-story brick bungalow. Engine 1 had a skid load lead out and Truck 2 had numerous holes in the roof.

This from Daniel Hynd:

The Darien-Woodridge FPD responded to a house fire in the 7900 Blk of Fairmount Ave in unincorporated Downers Grove last night. Crews arrived on scene with heavy fire through the roof of a 1-story, single family ranch reported to be under construction. Companies were defensive for most of the operation and fire was under control around 30 minutes after arrival.

This from Eric Haak:

Here are a few images taken in Chicago last weekend. This was a vacant home in the 19th Battalion. There was fire in the basement, first floor, and attic and most of the initial attack was done defensively. Eventually companies went interior and mopped up.

Posted by Admin in Apparatus on-scene, Fire Scene photos | No Comments

Excerpts from fox32chicago.com:

A fire started just before 10:30 a.m. Thursday at Tri-Star Cabinet & Top Co., Inc., which is located at 1000 South Cedar Road in New Lenox.

New Lenox Fire Protection District (NLFPD) firefighters arrived on the scene and found heavy smoke and flames coming from the building. There were about 60–70 employees inside at the time it began. All of them were evacuated safely, and no injuries were reported.

It took firefighters four hours to get the alarm fire under control.
