Friday (1/2/15) night at 21:33 hours, Adams County Pennsylvania Box 33-14 was struck for the house fire with possible entrapment at 950 Green Springs Road, Hanover, Pa. United Hook and Ladder Company 33 Ambulance 33-A, returning form a previous medical call, arrived on scene first advising of a fully-involved house fire. United Hook and Ladder Chief 33 requested the working fire assignment, and advised to have Brush and Tanker 33 from station 2 respond first due to the long narrow road leading to this address (approx 2,000 feet, ten feet wide max). Brush 33 arrived, and deployed a “trash line” to the working fire which was actually a mobile home with an addition and basement added.

Water supply was difficult with only Tanker 33 and Tanker 9 from the York Springs Fire Company able to get up the long narrow roadway. The entrapment proved negative.

The home was a major loss due to the fire, and a majority of the addition suffered severe smoke damage.

The Pennsylvania State Police Fire Marshal was notified and requested to the scene. One occupant of the home was transported via ambulance to the hospital for smoke inhalation.

The box was placed in service at 00:05 hours.
