A fire was reported at 2 Windridge Road in South Barrington today, on May 18th, 2015, around 1:00 PM. The Barrington Countryside Fire Protection District (FPD) responded to a house fire. Upon arrival, firefighters discovered parts of the cedar shake roof on fire and immediately requested a MABAS Box Alarm. Due to strong winds, the alarm was escalated to a second alarm, and then to a third as companies were pulled back for an exterior attack.
Multiple hand lines were deployed, with some crews using foam to help control the flames. After a section of the roof had burned away, firefighters re-entered the structure to locate and extinguish any remaining hot spots.
Outside, a large fire pit was found smoldering in the backyard, located upwind of the house. This posed an additional risk and required careful monitoring by responding units.
The incident saw a significant number of fire departments and emergency services responding. Units from Barrington Countryside FPD included two engines and two tenders. Additional engines came from Barrington, Lake Zurich, Algonquin, Fox River Grove, Hanover Park, West Dundee, Schaumburg, and Carpentersville. Ladder trucks arrived from Hoffman Estates, McHenry Twp, Countryside, and Palatine. Squad units from Libertyville and Cary, along with ambulances from Buffalo Grove and Long Grove, were also on scene. Tenders from Long Grove, McHenry Twp, Nunda Rural, Crystal Lake, Prospect Heights, Palatine Rural, East Dundee, Bartlett, Wauconda, and Rutland-Dundee joined the effort. Other resources included MABAS Air 5 and the MESS Canteen.
Several local media photographers captured the scene, providing valuable visual documentation of the fire and the heroic efforts of the responders. Additional photos can be viewed at shapirophotography.net. A video of the incident is also available for viewing.
This was a well-coordinated response involving multiple agencies working together to contain the fire and ensure public safety. No injuries have been reported at this time.
