Commercial fire in Kankakee, 7-11-15

This from Eric Haak:

Kankakee had a Box Alarm for a fire in a Family Dollar Store on Saturday (7/11).  It was out by the time I arrived, but I took the opportunity to shoot some rigs I don’t ever get to see.  The lighting wasn’t the best and it was raining, but I thought I would share the results.  There were three engines from Kankakee, one each from Bradley, Limestone, and Grant Park, a tower ladder each from Kankakee and Bourbonnais.
