A few images from the house fire in Kildeer, 12-1-21 by Larry Shapiro

Excerpts from wgntv.com:
In the darkness that comes earlier these days, flames lit up the sky for miles in Kildeer following a massive fire.
A multi-story home caught fire and is uninhabitable. The structure may be a total loss. The size of the fire necessitated a mutual aid response from a dozen neighboring communities. Firefighters used a dry hydrant where water is pulled from retention ponds because there are no fire hydrants in the area.
Lake Zurich Fire Chief David Pilgrad says that given the flames’ intensity, the exterior side of one of the adjacent homes had to be drenched as a precaution.
Everyone made it out of the home safely and did not require emergency care or hospitalization. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
