House fire in Riverside, 8-17-16

This from Code Photography:

The Riverside FD was toned for a possible house fire in the 100 block of Herrick Rd. While companies were en route, dispatch advised that people might be trapped. 1604 arrived on scene with nothing showing from a 2 1/2 story wood frame house. As he made his way inside, he was advised by one of the residents that there was a person on the second where it appeared the fire was as well. First-in companies pulled a line and were able to make a search of the second floor. The fire was contained to the second floor C/D corner.

Riverside Box Alarm 6-20-13

This from Drew Gresik:

Here are a couple of photos from Riverside’s Box Alarm at 73 Northgate Road. Fire was in the basement upon arrival, with heavy smoke pushing from the chimney. Command had Engine 1621 lead a line into the home to knock the fire while Truck 1629 had the roof for ventilation. Fire was knocked in about 20 minutes. No shots of flames at this fire, but some cool shots of the smoke patterns before crews made entry. Attached are photos of several rigs and the structure. Forest View is currently using the Darien-Woodridge reserve engine that says “Southwest United Fire Districts” since both of their rigs are out of service with water damage to the electrical systems after that record flood a month or so ago. LaGrange has re-numbered their old Pierce and still runs it on M/A calls.
