All posts tagged 2-alarm fire at the Dairy Maid warehouse

Frederick County Fire & Rescue battled an early morning 2-alarm fire at the Dairy Maid warehouse on East 7th St. in downtown Frederick, MD.  The fire started due to a malfunction in a compressor and spread to the warehouse roof.  Firefighters quickly had the fire under control and continued to perform overhaul on the scene for a few hours.  I arrived during the overhaul phase.

Companies on scene included United #3, Citizens Truck #4, Independent #1, Junior #2, Braddock Heights, Brunswick, and Emmitsburg.  The full dispatch of both alarms is here via the dispatch provided by Frederick Scanner:
