Box alarm in Mundelein, 1-6-18

Mundelein firefighters responded to 115 Pinehurst Drive Saturday night (1/6/18) around 8:30 for fire in an attached garage. Upon arrival, the garage was engulfed in fire and within minutes Battalion 43 requested a MABAS Box Alarm. Companies made an aggressive attack deploying three lines and prevented substantial damage into the house. One car in the garage was destroyed and another in the driveway was badly damaged.

Units at the scene included an engine, tower ladder, ambulance and battalion chief from Mundelein, engines from Countryside, Grayslake, and Wauconda, trucks from Libertyville and Lake Forest, a squad from Fox Lake, and Countryside Chief 4100.

Still & Box Alarm in Chicago, 12-3-17

This from Eric Haak:

Thought I would share a few images from a still and box alarm in the 16th Battalion on Sunday morning (12/3) at 5658 S. Sayre Avenue. Engine 32 (in the spare rig) pulled a box immediately upon landing on the scene. It was promptly struck out by the 16th Battalion less than 3 minutes later. There was some extension to the home which was attached to the brick garage.
