The Hobart Indiana Fire Department responded to the report of smoke coming from a theater across the street from South Lake Mall at about 1130 Saturday (9/27) morning.  It turned out that the theater was being demolished and a fire had started on the side of the building that was adjacent to an occupied Michael’s Craft Store.  The fire was fairly well advanced and a Box Alarm was requested.  Companies were working in both sectors A and C with Crown Point’s tower ladder up front and Merrillville’s truck in the back.  Images in this gallery were taken about one hour in.

Tuesday morning, June 3, Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services (MCFRS) were alerted to the HazMat Box on Rockville Pike at the Forum Apartments. Investigation showed high CO levels on multiple floors. The building was evacuated and EMS evaluated residents. No injuries were reported. HazMat crews performed ventilation and identified a malfunctioning water heater as the source of the CO. The incident was declared under control by the time I arrived.

Here are some apparatus shots.

Thanks to Pete Piringer, the MCFRS PIO for the detailed Twitter feed on this incident as it was happening: https://twitter.com/mcfrsPIO

Working fire in Maywood, IL – May 31, 2014

I happened to be pretty close to this alarm the other night at 9th & Roosevelt. This looked like it had some potential but was well under control when I arrived just behind the box alarm companies. From what I could gather it was a basement fire that did spread upwards, but well controlled. Took a few rig shots, and the Hummer just doesn’t seem to fit on the fireground but is kinda cool anyway.

Working fires in Memphis, TN – May 16, 2014

I had the pleasure of spending the past 4 days with my wife down in Memphis, Tenn./Horn Lake, Mississippi with my close friends Bill Adelman and his fiancé who took us around on Friday along with our friend Ryan Smith. Here are some highlights of our day.

Part 1 is 2 fires we chased the first being an abandoned, 1-sty frame home with what looked like a fire in the back bedroom. The interesting thing about Memphis is that everyday there can be a brownout of companies due to a lack of the required manpower to run a company. Most if not all companies run with 4 guys total.

The 2nd fire was at 4886 Autumn Leaf Dr. which is a public housing complex with one way and one way out. The buildings are all 2-sty frames with a fire wall between each set of 2 units. This fire appeared to be in the kitchen involving the stove and needed only the first engine and first truck to handle
