House fire in Jefferson, MD – March 3, 2015

Frederick County Fire & Rescue units were alerted for smoke in the house, Old Middletown Road, Jefferson, MD (Box area 20) on March 3. Dispatch advised units en route that callers were reporting fire showing and possible entrapment. First arriving units on-scene reported fire and smoke coming from the 2nd floor, and it was determined that all occupants had evacuated the structure. Command (Jefferson Chief 20) requested the rapid intervention and tanker task force assignments bringing mutual aid units from Loudoun County.

More of my photos from the scene can be viewed on my Flickr site:

Many thanks to my friend Lt. Kelly Lowery of Jefferson Co. 20 and Loudoun County Fire & Rescue for sharing his shots from when he first arrived on the scene (running first due with Tanker 612).

Best-
