| At approximately 10:00 AM on August 5th, Dudley Fire Captain Dave Konieczny was returning from a routine fire inspection when he spotted a large column of smoke pushing up from the area of West Main Street. Upon further investigation, he found a residential garage well involved. The remainder of his crew was at Fire Headquarters and they received the alarm of fire at about the same time. The location of the fire was approximately a quarter of a mile from the fire station, and the on duty crew knew when they left the station that they would be going to work. The garage was situated behind a multi-family residence, and sat dangerously close to another two story garage and an additional home. First due jakes got a hoseline into place to protect the most threatened exposure, then stretched an additional line to the opposite side of the structure to combat the heavy fire condition. The fire was quickly knocked down and crews spent about 90 minutes on scene. The fire did melt most of the vinyl siding on the "D" side exposure, but it did not extend into this garage. There were no injuries. The cause of the fire is under investigation. |
