This from Dan McInerney – from 14 years ago yesterday:

This was a fire I took in after work in 08

Still and Box at 5922 W Erie, 2 1/2-story frame, 25×50, totally involved. Box on arrival by Truck 29

Got there 3-4 minutes after 96 and the group.

Tower Ladder 14 members were on the roof.

Right after the 4th image was taken, 2-2-4 ordered members off the roof since there were no lines on the second floor and conditions were deteriorating in the attic beneath them.

This from Josh Boyajian:

Tuesday I took in a fire at 5038 s May. Battalion 15 arrived and had smoke showing from the attic of a 2.5 sty balloon frame. Fire started on the first floor in the ceiling and traveled up the walls and into the attic. Engine 50 had 2 lines lead out, Truck 18 had their main to the roof. Here are some shots.
