Seneca Hose, Winchester Squad 3, and Union Truck 2 were alerted to a possible fire in a crawl space in a residence on Stephenson Ave off of Seneca Street.

Engine 2 and Chief 9 arrived on scene within 4 minutes of initial dispatch and reported heavy smoke showing from the first floor and attic. Engine 2 found fire in a rear step down and quickly extinguished the fire. Crews opened up and checked for any fire extension.

Thank you to our mutual aid partners for a quick response limiting damage to the structure.
