2-alarm fire in Baltimore

All posts tagged 2-alarm fire in Baltimore

Baltimore City fire units were alerted to the dwelling/building fire on Tuesday morning (5/19/15) at the corner of E. Lombard and S. Conkling Streets in the Baltimore Highlands.  Upon arrival firefighters encountered smoke and fire coming from the 2nd floor and roof of the building.  A second alarm was toned out bringing in additional manpower and resources.  The fire was quickly knocked and extensive overhaul was performed on a day of hot and humid weather reaching the high 80s.  The Baltimore Box 414 Association responded with their canteen rigs to provide hydration and refreshments for the firefighters.

Here are some photos of rigs and crews working on the scene during the overhaul process.
