2-Alarm fire in Evergreen Park, 9-24-16 (more)

This Steve Redick:

Had the chance to take in a job in an area I seldom ever get to … Evergreen Park. The fire was in a local landmark restaurant at 3701 W 95th St. Admittedly I got a late start but arrived as they were again going defensive. I was able to document some widely varying conditions as well as some apparatus I have never seen before. SS3, the snorkel, actually once belonged to Wilmette. In my opinion the turning point of the fire was when they used the basket close to the ground and put the master stream into the front door where some heavy smoke conditions were present. I also observed an unusual operation using engines in line and a 3 way divider as you will see in the photos.  All the images can be seen on my site.

This from Matt Schumann:

Here are a few pictures from Saturday’s 2-11 for a fire in a restaurant at 3701 W. 95th St.
No visible flame for most of the fire and the fire picked up as time went on.  Fire went to a defensive attack with 3 elevated streams in use.   (Evergreen Park, Chicago Ridge and North Palos FPD).
Regards,
Matt Schumann
