The Glenwood Fire Department had a working fire on Thursday afternoon (8/11). Crews did a great job of saving a home that was in a non-hydranted area. Here are a few images from the scene.

The Glenwood Fire Department went to a 2nd Alarm Saturday morning (2/13/16) for fire in a two-story, multi-unit building at 800 E. 191st Place.
This from Eric Haak:
Here are some images of the 2nd alarm in south suburban Glenwood. The initial alarm came in around 11:30. There was heavy fire in the cockloft which eventually consumed the entire length of the building.

This from Brad Steinweg:
Just wanted to submit an update for Glenwood. The 2000 expedition listed as 432 is now 424 and no longer runs medical calls. It is used as station 1’s utility vehicle. The new 432 is a 2010 Ford expedition equipped with medical supplies and is now our EMS response unit out of station 1.
