Steve Redick took in a Still & Box Alarm last night at 3636 Grenshaw. The fire originated on the back porches of a three-story 6 flat unit which appeared to be vacant. Engine 107 was the second engine in and was ordered to the rear where they opened up with their deck gun to knock done the bulk of the fire before taking a hydrant at the end of the alley.
