Chicago had a the 2-11 this morning on the near west side at 2943 W Washington. Fire was in a very nice building, about 50×100 Greystone. It looked to be most of the fire was on the second floor and in the attic. Companies were making an interior attack and Truck 36 was making numerous holes on the roof. It was a cold, windy morning, and it seemed like the fire really took off when the wind picked up. Josh Boyajian

On Saturday, November 19th, the Chicago Fire Department responded to the report of a house fire shortly after sunrise.  The Englewood Fire Alarm Office had received two different locations and the first engine arrived at the first address with nothing showing.  The alarm office advised they were also getting calls for 74th Street and Engine 54 landed with a fire a few seconds later.  The residence was occupied but no one was at home at the time.

Wheeling firefighters were called just before 4pm to 195 Cindy Lane for a report of smoke in the house. Within minutes the alarm was upgraded to a Code 4 for the working fire and police arrived reporting that the house was fully involved. Two residents that had gotten out of the house were transported to Northwest Community Hospital for smoke inhalation.

The size up from the first fire unit on the scene was fire visible through the roof of the single-family home. Companies made an aggressive interior attack with fire in the attic and the second floor. The homeowner was reportedly doing some plumbing and sweating pipes when the fire broke out.

Ansonia, CT – At approximately 7:45am on August 12, 2015, Ansonia Fire Marshal Ralph Tingley was flagged down by a citizen while driving up Finney Street. Upon investigation, he found a large 1-story ranch-style house at 2 Greenfield Drive with smoke showing from the ridge vent. He called on the radio for an assignment and the fire appeared to be a working kitchen fire extending down a hall and also into the attic. The Ansonia Fire Department quickly arrived on scene and after and aggressive interior attack, they had the fire knocked down shortly thereafter.

Two residents and their two dogs were home at the time of the blaze (an elderly mother and her adult son). It was reported that the son received burns removing his mother and dog from the home and that everybody was doing well later that afternoon.
