2-Alarm fire in Gurnee, 10-27-13

This from Larry Shapiro:

The Gurnee Fire Department was dispatched for a fire at 17434 W. Walnut early afternoon. Companies found fire in one unit of a six-unit townhouse. The alarm was escalated to a Box Alarm and then to a 2nd Alarm as the fire began to spread to adjacent units. Crews made an aggressive attack and were able to stop the fire before it spread to the end units.

Three firefighters were transported with minor injuries and several residents signed medical releases on the scene.

Mutual aid with engines was from : Beach Park, Grayslake, Mundelein, Waukegan, and Libertyville. Round Lake was due with a truck, Fox Lake with a squad, and a total of four mutual aid ambulances (Lincolnshire-Riverwoods, Lake Villa, Long Grove, and Zion) were at the scene to handle rehab and the transports.

Images from the scene include Larry’s and several from area residents or bystanders.
