Small Apartment Fire kept under control

Saturday, April 30, 2016

At 0830 hrs on the 22nd of November, Christiana Fire and mutual aide companies were dispatched for a apartment fire in the Cheswold blvd section of Christiana. Engine and Ladder 12 arrived to find nothing showing but as always laid a supply line and pulled a attack line. Upon entering the building crews were met with a smoke condition in the hallway and quickly located a ground floor apartment on fire. Deputy Chief 12 arrived, assumed command and was advised by bystanders of a subject trapped in one of the apartments. Searches were completed by Ladders 12 & 9 who assisted several subjects outside. Crews remained on scene for 2 hours. (Photo credit to FF Frank Martin (Co.23), fmartinjr on youtube)
