Friday afternoon October 7th, DC Firefighters were dispatched to 5016 2nd St. N.W. with multiple calls reporting a building fire.
Units shortly arrived in the front with smoke showing from the eaves of a two story apartment building. E-14 arrived in the rear and had fire showing.
The fire had extended from the basement all the way to the roof. The building apparently vacant was in deplorable condition and companies making an initial interior attack and search used extreme caution.
As the fire progressed , a Second Alarm was requested and the fire was brought under control shortly there after.

Washington, DC firefighters battled this 2-alarm blaze on Delafield PL, NW on Monday, 1/4/16. Units arrived on scene to find heavy fire on the 2nd floor. During the event, evac tones were sounded and a Mayday was called when part of E21’s crew was temporarily unaccounted for. Thankfully, they were quickly found to be safe. The family dog was rescued from the structure as well. Cramped city streets, the proximity of neighboring homes and electrical wires in close proximity created challenges in fighting the fire.
Thanks, and keep up the good work!
