2 Alarm Dwelling Fire: 2319 Old Philadelphia Pike

 March 27, 2022

Around 3:00am, Engine 63-2 and Truck 63 were dispatched with the initial assignment for a working Dwelling Fire in the 2300 Block of Old Philadelphia Pike (Co. 62 district).

Multiple 9-1-1 callers reported a house on fire at the location.

ELTPD arrived first and reported a fully involved dwelling fire.

Truck 63 was 3rd arriving and positioned in a rear driveway to make access to the fire which was burning on the back side of the structure. The crew split up to perform a search and open up the interior of the second floor and attic space. The exterior crew placed ground ladders and ventilated the roof.

Engine 63-2 arrived to assist with fire attack and overhaul.

The assignment upgraded as far as the second alarm to bring the incident under control.

Crews worked the incident for nearly 5 hours.

Thank you Strasburg Fire Company #1 and Lancaster Township Fire Department for covering our quarters while we worked the incident.
