Still & Box at 12300 S. Michigan Ave. 2-21-2013
This is a report from Dennis McGuire, Jr.:
This afternoon, Engine Co. 62 arrived at a one-story auto repair shop that was on fire with flames coming through the roof. Once the crews entered the building, the 22nd Battalion requested a Still and Box alarm. A significant amount of overhaul and salvage work was needed after the fire was brought under control.
Here are some photos from the scene:
More from Dan McInerney:
Here are some pictures from the still and box at 12300 S. Michigan on Thursday afternoon. The fire occurred in a one-story vacant autobody shop. It appears to have started in the garage and spread into the cockloft, eventually going through the roof. Squad 5 was on a still in a high-rise on 41st Street, and since the 22nd Battalion didn’t have an elevated stream on the still, they decided to box it to bring in a tower ladder. Engine 115 and Engine 75 each had a 2.5-inch line and quickly controlled the fire. Neither Tower 34 nor Squad 5 (who eventually arrived from 41st Street) used their platforms. There was a lot of overhaul afterward, and the 22nd Battalion asked for EFAO to notify the Building Department that this was a vacant and open building.
