House fire in Lyons, 5-27-16

This from Drew Gresik:

Lyons companies had a working fire in a bungalow 5/27/16 at 4236 Leland Avenue. First engine had heavy smoke showing from the attic on arrival. Two lines were dropped, and the roof was opened by Riverside Truck 1629. Some birds were rescued during searches, and the fire appeared to be mostly in the attic. Great job by companies on scene.

Countryside FPD house fire, 5-8-16

May 8

Posted by Admin in Apparatus on-scene, Fire Service Photos | Comments off

This from Larry Shapiro:

Countryside FPD firefighters were called to 26805 N Circle Drive in unincorporated Mundelein just after 1AM (5-8-16) by residents reporting that their house was on fire. Responding units were advised that the fire was blocking the front door and the family was outside but unable to flee a rear deck that was 10 feet above ground level.

The first engine confirmed a fire with flames visible from down the block and the alarm was upgraded to a Full Still. The fire was knocked down within minutes and companies due on the upgrade were returned, which is when I arrived.

This from Josh Boyajian:

I arrived about an hour into this fire that consumed a large building that took up the whole Southeast corner of 154th and Broadway. Chicago sent their foam unit along with Engine 26 and 5-1-5 but they weren’t used. Here are some of my shots with the whole gallery on my site @ Harvey 3-11 Alarm @ 154th & Broadway

Working fire in Riverwoods, IL 4-18-16

This from Larry Shapiro:

Lincolnshire-Riverwoods firefighters were dispatched Monday morning (4/18/16) for fire in an attached garage at 2639 Forest Glenn Trail in Riverwoods. Arriving units had smoke escaping around the doors of a four-car garage with bedrooms above. The alarm was upgraded to the Code 4 working fire as they were pulling lines. The fire was extinguished quickly through a side window, and the damage was contained to a small area of contents inside. The fire was out well before I arrived at the scene.
