The Lincolnshire-Riverwoods FPD responded to a fire at 840 Inverrary Lane at 4:30 Sunday morning (8/14/16). The first arriving unit was met by the homeowner that had evacuated the unit and reported flames on the lower level of the split-level unit. They encountered hoarder conditions and made their way downstairs where a ruptured water line that fed the washing machine was keeping the fire from expanding rapidly.
The alarm was upgraded to a Code 4 for the working fire which brought mutual aid companies from Buffalo Grove, Prospect Heights, Lake Zurich, and Wheeling, along with chief officers from Deerfield and Countryside. A Northbrook ambulance was later called to transport the homeowner to the hospital.

Lincolnshire-Riverwoods FPD firefighters responded to an automatic alarm at 200 Schelter Road late Sunday morning (8/7/16) and found a generator fire in a small room outside of a metal processing company. The alarm was upgraded shortly thereafter to a Code 4 for the working fire. The flames were extinguished quickly and most mutual aid companies were returned. There was significant damage to one of the building’s generators.

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.

Here is the drawing of E53 if that’s where it’s assigned. The only difference is the siren will be in the front bumper like our other apparatus not in the grill. It will also have an American flag grill the same as the rest of our apparatus.
