Last evening at 19:04 Engines 1, 2, and 7, Tower 1 and BC3 were dispatched to 12 Alden Court for a Building fire. While responding PD on scene reported heavy smoke and fire. Engine 1 signed off with a 2 story detached garage fully involved and began stretched a 2 1/2” line while Engine 7 established a water supply. Tower 1 set up the aerial on Alden Court and 2 other lines were stretched and put into operation. Flames were 40’ in the air with a lot of flying embers which then sparked a Brush fire behind a Residence on Standish Ave. BC3 struck a Working Fire and a 2nd alarm in rapid succession starting Rescue 1 and Engine 5. 2 additional Companies were also requested that being Engines 4 and 6. Engine 5 and 6 went to work on the brush fire as companies continued working at Alden Ct. Tower 1 vented the Bravo exposure as heavy fire had made its way into the attic area. Fire was knocked down at 19:57 and all companies began opening up and overhauling. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation. Thank you Carver, Kingston and Bourne for covering our stations during this incident.
