Allentown- On the night of February 18 at 00:32 hrs., the AFD was summoned to a report of several homes on fire with possible explosions going off in the vicinity of Third and Court Sts. On arrival, companies found an outside fire in a open parking lot between two three story homes at 25 N. Third St and 29 N. Third St. In this lot were enough flammable materials like a vehicle, propane tanks, and other debris to cause the fire to vertically extend about some twenty feet high exposing both exposure walls and charring the siding. As the blaze area looked more doubtful, command eventually requested two more alarms. The temperature was in the upper teens and the fire took about ninety minutes to control . One person, two firefighters and two paramedics were taken to the hospital to get checked out and then released. Three homes were damaged by the fire and several others received smoke and water damage. The Red Cross took care of the people displaced by the fire.
