Prospect Heights Box Alarm 5-24-11

It was just after 2:30 PM today when the Prospect Heights Fire Department received a call about a fire in an attached garage on Schoenbeck Road. The first responding unit arrived at 410 N. Schoenbeck Road to find heavy flames engulfing the garage, quickly spreading to the two-story house. Since this area lacks hydrants, the initial response included their 3,000-gallon tanker, two engines, a battalion chief, and an ambulance. Additional support came from neighboring departments—Wheeling sent an engine, Mt. Prospect dispatched an ambulance, and Long Grove sent another tanker. The fire escalated rapidly, prompting an upgrade to a Code 4 response, which brought reinforcements such as an engine from Mt. Prospect, a tower ladder from Prospect Heights, a third tanker from Palatine Rural, an ambulance from Northbrook, a squad from Lincolnshire-Riverwoods, another tower ladder from Northbrook, and chief officers from Wheeling and Long Grove. By the time the bulk of the fire in the garage had been suppressed, it had already spread to the attic and a second-floor bedroom. Firefighters faced significant challenges as they tried to control the blaze, with the flames breaching the roof. As the situation worsened, the alarm was upgraded to a MABAS Box Alarm, calling in additional resources like a tower ladder from Buffalo Grove, a squad from Deerfield, a truck from Northfield (replacing one from Niles which wasn’t available), a RIT chief and engine from North Maine, engines from Palatine, Arlington Heights, and Des Plaines, an ambulance from Elk Grove Township, chief officers from Glenview and Northbrook, and the MESS Canteen. The first due engine, Prospect Heights Engine 9, used up its 750-gallon tank and the 3,000 gallons carried by Tanker 9. Long Grove Tanker 55 also carried 3,000 gallons, all of which were utilized before establishing a secure water supply requiring 2,500 feet of 5-inch hose. It was only after exhausting these resources that a stable water source was secured from a hydrant over half a mile away. Despite the efforts of the firefighters, the family’s beloved dog did not survive the fire. Fortunately, the residents managed to escape unharmed. Photographers Tim Olk and Larry Shapiro were present throughout the incident, capturing critical moments of the firefighting effort. Their galleries offer a comprehensive view of the scene, showcasing the dedication and bravery of the responders who worked tirelessly to bring the fire under control.
