At 1543 hours Tower 33 was alerted for a report of smoke coming from a house on Box 9-25 (formerly Co 22’s first due). Bladensburg’s Engine 809 arrived to a 2 story house with smoke showing. The Tower arrived immediately after, and the inside crew conducted a primary search and assisted with locating the fire. The outside team threw several ground ladders secured the power and gas. The fire was located on the first floor, and was quickly knocked, but not before it had extended into the walls. Due to the fire being fueled by electricity crews stood by until Pepco arrived and secure the power at the meter. Crews operated for another hour, and Tower 33 returned home to Kentland.
