Buffalo Grove (IL) police officers and firefighters responded to a garage fire at 10:30 this morning at 630 Woodhollow Lane. A header was visible as companies left quarters. Upon arrival, crews had heavy fire blowing out of the garage that communicated into the house and the alarm was upgraded to a Code 4 working fire. They were informed that a person, last known to be in the garage, was unaccounted for. Firefighters attacked the fire and made entry to conduct a search. They encountered heavy fire and high heat, and were able to knock down the bulk of the fire within about 30 minutes. The missing person did not survive the fire.

The Tri-State Fire District (IL) worked a commercial fire at 11S224 Madison St in Burr Ridge on the evening of 1-7-24.

Crews were met with heavy fire showing from a one-story repair shop on arrival and deployed a deck gun and master stream. 20 minutes into the fire, the alarm was upgraded to a Box alarm. Due to limited supply from the hydrants, a tender box alarm was requested, bringing tenders from Pleasantview, Lemont, Plainfield, Homer, and York Center. Pleasantview’s hazmat was also requested to the scene to help control runoff from going into the sewer.

Working fire in Markham, IL – December 12, 2023

I took in a working fire in Markham last week at 16003 S Central Park Ave. First companies arrived on scene with heavy fire showing from the front and back of this place. Shortly thereafter, they went defensive and decided to let it go. I arrived about 30 minutes into the fire and this is what I found. Markham Engine 33 had a few lines off and was feeding Flossmoor’s tower ladder. Full gallery is HERE.

At around 130am on December 11th, Cicero (IL) fire companies were toned out for a structure fire @ 2704 S 60th Ct. Engine 2 arrived onscene with a fully involved, 2.5 sty wood frame, about 25×75′ and pulled a Box. Due to the amount of fire, exposure problems, and structural integrity, all companies went defensive. Truck Co. 2 put their aerial master stream to work on side A. Engine 1 & North Riverside Engine 807 lead out multiple big lines as well. I arrived about 10 minutes into the fire. The full gallery is HERE.
