Thursday evening (2/4/16), Hagerstown City (MD) fire crews were busy fighting a house fire on Day Road when another structure fire box was toned out on W. Washington St.  First arriving units, many of which were on mutual aid transfer to stations in the city reported a fire showing through the roof of a three-story apartment building.  Heavy fire was extending into the cockloft of the structure.  Crews confirmed reported entrapment and performed rescues of the occupants.  A 2nd alarm was sounded bringing in more mutual aid to the city.

Crews from Longmeadow Co. 27, Williamsport Co. 2, Maugansville, Waynesboro, PA, Funkstown, Hagerstown, Washington County Special Operations, Rehab 255 & Air Unit 25, Greencastle, PA, Halfway, Community Rescue Service 75, and more worked the job for over three hours performing extensive overhaul.

This was the first working structure fire for the new Engine 2-1 of the Williamsport, MD fire department.
