Here are some photos and a video of the 2nd Alarm fire in Elmwood Park, IL (2/6/15). Elmwood Park companies had a report of a machine on fire at 35 Conti Parkway. Once the machine was knocked, interior reported they had fire in the rear that they could not reach with their line and asked for a second line. At the same time smoke conditions worsened and command was notified of an alarm at 36 Conti Parkway, and the first box alarm was struck. Companies eventually went defensive and a second alarm was requested.
