***WORKING FIRE*

Just before 11pm on Wednesday, Emporium Vol Fire Dept and Rescue 3 were dispatched for a house fire on East 3rd Street in Emporium Borough. Upon dispatch, several responding units advised a working fire and Chief 14 requested the second alarm, adding Engine 3 to the assignment. The Rescue arrived and was ordered to split the crew with half taking a line in the front door to attack the fire on the second floor, while the other half of the crew worked to stretch an additional hose line to the side of the building and over ground ladders for fire attack. Engine 3 arrived and laid a supply line from a hydrant, then stretched an additional hose line to the rear. The crews from Rescue 3 and Emporium encountered heavy fire in the second floor and attic space. A partial collapse of the roof forced crews to evacuate the building briefly. Once all firefighters were accounted for and regrouped, Firefighters were sent back into the building to extinguish the remaining fire. PAFD and surrounding departments worked for nearly 4 hours before returning to service.

Thanks to Roulette Chemical Engine #1 for transferring an engine to our station during the fire.
