Mundelein firefighters and mutual aid companies were sent to a duplex at 1283 Huntington Drive early Sunday evening for afire. Upon arrival they had smoke showing from a two-story frame duplex unit with the whereabouts of a resident unknown. There was heavy fire in a second floor bedroom. Firefighters encountered hoarder conditions inside which hampered efforts for a thorough search. The alarm was upgraded to a MABAS Box Alarm for additional personnel.

The fire was extinguished within a half hour and companies began extensive overhaul. Libertyville Engine 462 and Mundelein quint 432 were both on hydrants.
