Virginia Firefighters Battle Blaze

July 10, 2008
There were no injuries at the scene.

On July 5, Arlington County, Va. Communications received a call at about 10 p.m. from a passerby who reported seeing smoke coming from a house.

A full Box Alarm was assigned, and upon arrival units reported a working fire. The truck companies went to work opening up, and units inside were able to make a fairly quick knock on the fire.

Two additional engines and an additional Rescue were added to the Run-Card for the extensive overhaul. There were no injuries at the scene.

Units were taking up within an hour, while the first engine and truck stuck around to mop up.
