Thanksgiving Night Fire in Willistown
By MFC Watch Desk
November 26, 2015
On Thursday 11/26/2015 the Paoli Fire Company was dispatched at 21:14 to the unit block of Lloyd Avenue for a reported house fire. The caller saw flames on the front porch spreading rapidly. Assistant 3 (Robinson) arrived shortly after dispatch to find fire from the front of the dwelling. Paoli crews arrived and began fire extinguishment while Chief 3 (Dutter) took Lloyd Avenue Command and requested assistance from the Malvern Fire Company and Berwyn Fire Company.
Ladder 4 arrived and its crew split to the interior and exterior the structure. The exterior crew placed ground ladders while the interior crew assisted with fire suppression and overhaul. Engine 4-5 arrived and sent a relief crew to the third floor of the dwelling to assist in pulling ceiling and extinguishing the fire that had extended up into the attic. Malvern EMS crews stood by on-scene providing rehab services and transported one firefighter to Paoli Memorial Hospital for a minor injury. Ultimately additional crews from East Whiteland and Radnor were brought in for extra manpower to assist with overhaul clean-up. The fire was investigated by the Chester County Fire Marshal’s Office and Belfor secured the property following the incident.
All Malvern units were clear of the fire by 1:00 AM.
