Norwood Park FPD working fire

This from Steve Redick:

This was at Montrose and Nagle a couple of nights ago … Large house … appeared fire was venting from the 2nd floor.  I couldn’t get much as local law enforcement focused on the fat guy with the camera that night 😉   Did get a decent shot of the new pumper at work. Some roof work was in progress as I arrived but it appeared this fire was well under control in very short order.

Northbrook house fire 6-30-13

Sunday evening at roughly 9:15PM, the Northbrook Fire Department received a call reporting fire in the home at 1337 Walters Avenue. As units went en-route, the police reported a working fire at the scene, and the alarm was upgraded to a Code 4 (working fire) before the first fire company arrived. In addition to units from Northbrook, Glencoe responded with an engine, Northfield with a truck, and Lincolnshire-Riverwoods Ambulance 52.

Fire was in a second floor bedroom and communicated into the attic before venting through the roof. A Box Alarm was requested for additional companies to cover the three Northbrook stations. Tim Olk and Larry Shapiro were at the scene. The fire was contained within 25 minutes. The residents, who were home when the fire broke out, all evacuated safely.

Several images of the apparatus were submitted by Larry, and we expect to see shots showing the fire from Tim, since he arrived right behind the Northbrook companies.
