@1203hrs Franklin County began receiving calls for a large column of smoke in the area of Lowes on Lincoln Way East. Just prior to dispatching the Outside Investigation assignment they began receiving calls for a working house fire and sent the Assignment bringing Engine 7-2 w/5 and Engine 7-1 w/4.

Chief 46 arrived shortly after with heavy fire from the alpha side. Engine 7-2 and Engine 43 arrived and laid a supply line and put 2 lines in service. A quick knock down of the outside porch area was done and then 7-2 & 43 crews made a push interior encountering heavy fire on division 1 throughout, a room well off on the 2nd floor, a room off in the basement, and fire running the void spaces of the roof.

Engine 7-1 arrived and established a water supply and sent there crew up to assist with operations. Crews operated for approximately 4-5 hours before being released by command 44. Great Job by all! Also thanks to Station 4 for the refreshments on-scene and Bendersville Fire Department for covering the Station. Also while in the final stages of this fire the 2nd Alarm was struck for Adams Box 1-3 bringing Squad 7 w/5. Crews arrived and assisted with opening up and hitting hotspots.

Lastly after all units returned to the station and had just finished cleaning up Squad 7 w/4 responded to box 27-1 for a MVA into a house. Co.27 arrived to find a single vehicle airborne into a house and negative entrapment. Squad 7 was cancelled en-route.
