This from Josh Boyajian:

Cicero had a fire today (10/26/15) at Morton East High School in the 2400 blk of Austin. First-in companies found smoke on the 3rd and 4th floors. After a long and thorough search, they found a motor behind a wall on fire. Companies held it to that area and it didn’t extend any further. Here are some shots.

This from Dan McInerney:

Last week MABAS Division 11 conducted a division wide Blue Card drill at the Cicero FD training tower. Departments from Division 11 performed basic fireground activities with an emphasis on radio protocol. The rain and clouds didn’t make for great pictures but I managed to grab a few.

This from Josh Boyajian:

The pictures are from Cicero’s working fire this afternoon.

Cicero had two working alley garages this afternoon @ 3624 s 56th Ave. Here are some of my pictures I took with my phone camera. Attached also is a picture of their new F-12, a 2012 Chevy Tahoe.

Cicero Box Alarm 10-30-12

This from Steve Redick:

Approximately 24th & Cicero…an old Railroad maintenance building…an old roundhouse. The aerial view is from the new Apple maps app. When I arrived there was nothing left to see firewise but they had 2 elevated master streams ready to go so I imagine it musta looked pretty good at first. Judging by the radio traffic I think they had an old RR engine on fire. Lyons squad was supplying a foam line to the interior, not sure if it was class a or b. I really like the shots of the hole cut through the fence to access the hydrant..I wonder how they knew it was there….The Berwyn engine was supplying a very long relay of LDH, from all the way across Cicero ave. If anyone has some info to add please feel free….

This from Josh Boyajian:

This morning around 5:30, the Cicero Fire Department had a report of a car into a building at 3545 S 56th Court. Upon arrival the call was upgraded to a pin-in response which brought the 2 trucks, another engine, and 3 ambulances. Two people were seriously hurt. Tower Ladder 1 and Engine 3 were on the extrication tools while Truck 2 was assisting the medics with the victims. Here are some pictures I took.
