2-11 Alarm fire in Chicago, 9-8-24

Sep 23

This from Eric Haak:

A still & box was called for around 0715hrs followed by a 2-11 on Sunday morning, September 8th in Chicago’s 19th Battalion. Engine Company 54 deck gunned most of the heavy fire on the second floor. By the time companies led out, the fire had advanced to the third and was blowing out the front of the building. A RAM and several hand lines were used from the exterior to bring the fire under control in quick order. A tower ladder and snorkel were set up but I don’t believe they were ever used.

House fire in Orland Park, 8-7-24

Aug 9

Posted by Admin in Fire Department News, Fire Scene photos | No Comments

Excerpts from patch.com:

The Orland Fire Protection District received multiple reports of a garage fire in the 8900 block of Oakdale Court Wednesday just before 5 p.m. On arrival, firefighters found heavy fire coming from the garage of a single-family home, with flames spreading into the second floor bedroom and attic.

Firefighters made a blitz attack to bring the blaze under control and extinguished a fence on fire between the garage and a neighboring house.

The residents escaped through a rear door.

A full still alarm was called for additional personnel and equipment at the scene and to backfill Orland stations. One firefighter was transported for heat exhaustion and treated at a local hospital before being released.

The home is currently uninhabitable and the fire is under investigation by the Orland Fire District Origin and Cause Team.

Other departments providing station coverage and manpower were Palos, Tinley Park, Palos Heights, Lemont, North Palos, Homer, and Mokena.
