Working fire in Park Ridge, 2-18-16 (more)

This from Steve Redick:

Took in this job Thursday. Heavy fire was venting from a frame, one-story addition on the back of the house. Exposure B was threatened for a few minutes prior to my arrival. I believe that quite a bit of opening up concealed areas was needed, probably due to the construction features of the addition. At any rate, well controlled quickly. Note that the tower ladder, first due, was utilized as an engine company and supplied all the attack lines.

Working fire in Park Ridge, 2-18-16

Park Ridge firefighters responded to a house fire at 105 Elmore Street Thursday morning 2/18/16. RED Center received a call at 7:43 am reporting a fire with the possibility of two trapped occupants and dispatched the fire immediately as a Code 4 for the working fire. Within minutes a neighbor reported that the residents were out of the house. Park Ridge Battalion 35 arrived and reported heavy fire in the rear with an exposure on each side of the fire unit.

Companies made quick work of knocking down the fire and containing the flames. The residents were treated at the scene after inhaling smoke but both refused transport. Mutual aid to the scene included Rosemont, Niles, Des Plaines, Morton Grove, and the North Maine FPD.

Somewhat busy afternoon yesterday (5/12/15) in the City with a couple decent jobs at 2855 S Harding, 11830 S Normal, and 5942 S Peoria back-to-back-to-back. I threw together a quick mix of some of the audio into one file. Enjoy.
