Oak Park firefighters responded to a house fire this morning at 1110 Taylor. A neighbor had called reporting smoke from the roof. Companies found a story and a half brick bungalow with smoke from the second floor rear. Basically a one-room fire which involved the attic and eaves. One line was used and a backup was pulled but not charged.

 

Tim Olk arrived at the scene after the fire had been knocked down and submitted a few images.
