A few images from a working fire at 117th and Michigan in Chicago on Sunday afternoon.  Fire was already blowing out a sector B window on arrival even though Engine 75’s response distance was only 2 blocks.  The fire on the first floor was quickly brought under control but had made it’s way into a confined space attic.  All images of interior work being done without masks or packs were taken during the overhaul phase, well after the fire was declared out.

Glenn Duda submitted these images from a fire today in West Haven, CT.

West Haven, CT – 1003 Post Rd. Gino’s Steakhouse

The City of West Haven fire alarm received multiple calls for a restaurant on fire shortly before 8:30 a.m. this morning.

First due units arrived to find heavy smoke and fire erupting from the establishment. The restaurant had been closed for several weeks for a remodel project. A second and third alarm were quickly transmitted bringing all of the city’s companies to work. The fire took about an hour to bring under control. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
