Montgomery County Fire & Rescue units from the 3rd and 5th battalions, plus units from NIST, were toned out for fire in a shop, on Thursday, March 19, on Oakmont Ave. in Gaithersburg.  First arriving units reported a commercial auto repair shop building fully involved.  The working fire assignment and a rapid intervention dispatch was quickly filled.  Firefighters were ordered to use defensive operations due to the amount of fire in the structure.  Aerial tower ladders were deployed to protect exposures and the multiple vehicles surrounding the building.
