ANOTHER BACK-TO-BACK FIRE, THE FIFTH IN THREE DAYS: 417 CARMODY HILLS DRIVE IN SEAT PLEASANT
   
   
Saturday, December 26, 2009

Three hours after returning from the third alarm on Wilson Bridge Drive, Kentland Volunteers from Company 33 were summoned to another working fire. This time, Engine Company and Tower Ladder 33 were en-route with eight volunteers for the house on fire at 417 Carmody Hills Drive in Seat Pleasant. Engine Company 8 arrived within minutes and reported a two-story, detached wood frame and fire showing. Engine Company 33 arrived as the third due Engine Company, stretched the 250-foot pre-connect to the rear of the home and reported fire showing from the attic area. The crew checked the basement and began to work their way up. After finding nothing on the first floor as well, they proceeded to the attic area to back-up Engine Company 8 and assist with extinguishment. Tower Ladder 33 was the first due Truck Company, positioned on the "A" and "B" corner of the home and utilized a driveway gain access to the exterior of the home with the "bucket" of the boom. The interior crew began performing searches, ventilated and opened-up the main fire area. The exterior team placed four portable ladders and assisted with opening up the gable area of the attic. Volunteers from Kentland 33 operated for approx. two-hours before returning to service.
