More about the Still and Box Alarm fire 12-22-24 from Eric Haak:

Here are a few images from a Still & Box alarm in Chicago on the evening of 12/22/24. The building was vacant and boarded up and had a fire in the basement. The interior was piled high with garbage which prompted a strictly defensive attack. The fire was brought under control with the use of four handlines, Tower Ladder 39, and Squad 5’s Snorkel.

From Chi-Town Fire Photos:

This is from a Still & Box Alarm @ 5213 S Bishop on 12/22/24. Fire was in a vacant, boarded up 2.5-sty wood-frame. Engine 116 had heavy fire from the basement on arrival. A couple minutes in, Battalion 6 stated they were hitting it from the exterior of the building and they were having access problems. Shortly thereafter, Batt 6 pulled the box. They set up Tower 39 in the front of the building, and then set up Squad 5 Snorkel on the D side of the fire building in a vacant lot. Engine 116 had a bad hydrant, making Engine 123 go in-line with Engine 49 to feed them. Engine 50 also was led out with a 2.5” line in the rear, and was also feeding the snorkel.

This from Eric Haak:

The following images are from a still & box alarm fire in Chicago on Sunday, 12/3/23. The fire was in the old Swift mansion at 45th and Michigan. It started in a rear stairwell and was possibly of incendiary origins. The investigation has been turned over to CPD bomb and arson.

Excerpts from abc7chicago.com:

The Chicago Fire Department battled an extra-alarm fire in a West Side warehouse Tuesday morning in a one-story commercial building in the 4500-block of West Fulton Street.

The fire raged for more than an hour and around 7:45 a.m., CFD said it had been struck.

More than 100 firefighters responded to the fire. No one was inside the warehouse and no injuries were reported.

The building sustained major damage, including the collapse of the roof.

The building’s tenant was on scene Tuesday morning and said the business once inside the warehouse was called American Masonry and Supply.

Fire officials also say the fire was contained to the warehouse itself and never spread to any nearby structures.

The cause of the fire is under investigation

This from Eric Haak from the 2-11 Alarm fire in Chicago, 9-11-22

Here are some images from Sunday mornings 2-11 in Chicago. There was a deep-seated fire in the basement of the 50×100 auto parts store. Even though the building was 200 feet south of Engine 49’s house, the heavy fire load in the basement prompted a defensive attack early on.
