From the Chicago Ridge Police Department Facebook page:

When you wear DIFFERENT uniforms, but play for the SAME team … No matter the PATCH, we are all still FAMILY!

Thank you to the men in RED for quickly putting out the house fire on Oxford and Washington this afternoon. The Chicago Ridge Fire Department had assistance from multiples agencies – North Palos FD, Burbank FD, Bedford Park FD, Bridgeview FD, and Oak Lawn FD.

This from Eric Haak:

A very short Still & Box Alarm on Sunday afternoon (10/28). The fire was in a 1-story grocery store that was closed for the day. E127 landed first. The first picture was taken about 2 minutes before the box was requested. B16 reported that he had some fire in the basement with access issues. Needless to say, the Still and Box was not in very long.

Chicago Fire Department, 4-11 alarm, Broadway and Gunnison, 12/24/94

I took in this fire from home on 12//24/94. It was in a vacant auto dealership, probably 100×200 with a bowstring truss roof. Needless to say, they didn’t make a push inside as it was a done deal upon arrival. The site is now a parking lot for a large strip mall. Pictures were taken with a cheap camera that was all I could afford at the time.

Elmwood park 2-alarm fire at 7840 North Avenue, Sept 30 2018

This from Steve Redick:

A few images from the Elmwood Park 2-alarm fire. Nothing to see from my vantage point but it sounded like some interior fire in concealed spaces. I heard saws on the roof for quite a while.
