“Structure Fire”

At 1407pm a Box alarm was transmitted in District 3 (South Wall) for a possible structure fire. A Box alarm is a shared service agreement between Wall Fire District 1, 2 and 3 for any smoke or fire in a structure. Members arrived and found smoke and fire showing from the roof attic area of the 1-story residence. Crew from Engine 3 and volunteers from South Wall Fire Rescue, quickly and aggressively stretched a line, found fire in the attic which extended from an exterior fire on the side of the hom. A search of the residence was negative, as the homeowner were not home at the time of the fire. Crews from District 1 and 2 assisted with overhaul and checked for extension through out the house.
