It’s Been a Busy Week of House & Vehicle Fires
Here are some of our incident recaps of the past week, plus pictures. Our volunteer continually staff the apparatus around the clock on hundreds of runs per month.
- The Suitland Hose Company was dispatched to the 6800 BLK of Woodland Road in the town for the reported house on fire. The Engine Company, A Chief, and B Chief quickly made the response, and arrived on scene to find smoke showing from a single family home. The Engine Company located a working fire in the basement, and extinguished the same. All searches proved to be negative. Chief 27 held the Woodland Road command.
- The South Side Rescue Cmpany extricated 1 last night, this time on Ritchie Road. Morningside volunteers @ Prince George’s County, Maryland
- While returning from another run, Squad 27 was dispatched to the 5100 BLK of Allentown Road in the first due for the reported building fire. The squad was the first arriving unit on the scene, quickly located a small bedroom fire, extinguished the same, and performed primary and secondary searches.
