Dixmoor FD was toned out at approx. 0810 hrs this morning for a structure fire at 2309 W. Joliet Road. Police arrived and confirmed a working fire. Engine 2443 pulled up, found fire in a 2 sty bi-Level home, and called for the Full Still on their Box# 2409. The home appeared to be vacant, but that was not confirmed. Searches were made and the crews found nobody. The main body of the fire was in the lower level of the home and was quickly put out. Area departments that assisted: Calumet Park, Phoenix, Posen, Oak Forest, Robbins, South Holland and Riverdale were all on scene along with Garden Homes FPD and Hazel Crest were on the change of quarters.

I'm a Firefighter/Paramedic for the Lockport Fire District. I happened to come across a fire in Harvey yesterday morning at 15324 Honore. I snapped a few photos with my phone. It was a 1-story about 20 x 40 with fire in the basement. It went to a full still on their box #3. Posen, Dixmoor, and Homewood were Mutual Aid.
