Chicago Still & Box alarm fire 8-14-13

This from Eric Haak:

A few rig shots from the still & box alarm at the corner of Pershing Road and Wolcott on Wednesday.  Still time – 1108 hrs, box time – 1110 hrs, box struck 1127 hrs.  Engine 49 boxed the fire shortly after arrival when people were reportedly trapped on the second floor.  All residents self evacuated and were accounted for.  The majority of the fire was in the back porches and on the second floor.  All four engines on this fire had lines off.  49 & 39 were on Pershing, 50 had a hydrant down the block on Honore and 65 on Wolcott.  Just to give you an idea how quickly companies had things under control, it took only 12 minutes for me to arrive on scene and by then things were well in hand.
