On Friday May 31st, Company 23 was dispatched to 440 South Orange Street for a fire alarm. Chief 23 was advised by fire board that they had received numerous alarm activations throughout the building and reports of smoke coming from an apartment on the 2nd floor. The assignment was then upgraded to a building fire. Chief 23 arrived on location and confirmed the report of smoke coming from the apartment. Squrt 23 arrived on location laying in from Jefferson and Orange Streets. Squrt 23’s crew went into service with a 2” handline. After making entry into the apartment, the crew heard a cry for help. Deputy Chief Zuccarelli broke off from the attack crew to complete a search of the apartment. Keeping voice contact with the occupant, he was located lying on the floor in a bedroom closet. The occupant was removed from the building and turned over to EMS. Squrt 23’s crew completed extinguishment of the fire and finished primary search of the fire apartment. Quint 73 (Rose Tree) and Squad 52 (Brookhaven) performed primary search on the 2nd and 3rd floor. Crews from 50( Middletown) and Company 44 (Springfield) assisted with ventilation. Engine 51 (South Media) hooked up to the hydrant Squrt 23 laid in from. RIT 41 (Newtown Square) stood by as the primary RIT team. The fire was under control quickly and currently under investigation. Thank you to all the mutual aid fire companies who assisted us at the scene. Rose Tree Fire Company, Springfield Fire Company, Middletown Fire Company No. 1, Brookhaven Fire Co. Station 52 Delco, Pa, Newtown Square Fire Company, Riddle Hospital MICU 104 and South Media Fire Company. ... See MoreSee Less
