This from Eric Haak:

Thought I would share a few images from a still and box alarm in the 16th Battalion on Sunday morning (12/3) at 5658 S. Sayre Avenue. Engine 32 (in the spare rig) pulled a box immediately upon landing on the scene. It was promptly struck out by the 16th Battalion less than 3 minutes later. There was some extension to the home which was attached to the brick garage.
