Buffalo Grove (IL) police and firefighters were called to 134 Golfview Terrace Tuesday afternoon (1/5/21) for a reported house fire. Police officers were first on the scene and said there were flames through the roof. Buffalo Grove Battalion 4 upgraded the alarm to a Code 4 working fire based on the police report. The header was visible from a distance of at least a mile away. Tower Ladder 25 was the first fire company on the scene followed by Arlington Heights Engine 4. The first attack line was taken to the rear and quickly darkened the fire that was burning on the outside of the house. A second line went inside.

Buffalo (NY) firefighters responded in the late afternoon of October 25, 2014 to the intersection of Walden Avenue and Genesee Street after Fire Alarm received several calls reporting a structure fire. Arriving crews reported heavy fire from a two and one half story wood frame at 5 Walden Avenue. An extra two engines and one ladder were called for, followed shortly by the balance of the second alarm. High winds helped spread the blaze to adjoining structures at 1 and 3 Walden Avenue. Firefighters fought the fire defensively using three tower ladders, three Blitz Fire nozzles, and four 2 1/2″ handlines. An excavator was brought to assist in overhaul. Damage was set at $250,000. The cause is under investigation.
