The Berwyn Fire Department was dispatched for a fire in an alley on the 7000 Block of 34th St this evening.

Josh Boyajian, who lives in Berwyn sent us the following summary and imges:

When I walked out of my house, there was a huge header visible. They (Berwyn companies) arrived on-scene to find a boat on fire, fully involved. They used two lines on the fire. The boat was under construction at the time. North Riverside was auto-aid.
