Chicago 2-11 Alarm fire 9-12-11

Chicago responded to a 2-11 alarm for a fire at 3056 N. Milwaukee Avenue on Monday morning. According to the Chicago Tribune, the fire broke out at 9:24 a.m. in the two-story building, which housed a bakery on the first floor and apartments on the second. When firefighters arrived, heavy smoke was coming from the basement, and the ceiling appeared to be involved in the blaze, said fire department spokesman Larry Langford. The building was empty at the time of the fire, and no injuries were reported. Despite the initial efforts, the fire forced firefighters to evacuate the structure shortly after their arrival. A Mobile Ventilation Unit was quickly dispatched and deployed to help manage the situation. Tim Olk and Steve Redick were on the scene, with Steve providing a video and Tim capturing several images. The photos show firefighters working under challenging conditions, including using a hand line from a neighboring rooftop and removing roofing materials as part of the ventilation process. One image highlights the intense heat and smoke pouring from the basement, while another shows firefighters navigating the rear stairs as flames consumed the second floor. The efforts of the 13th Battalion and other units were critical in controlling the spread of the fire. For more details, you can read the full article from the Chicago Tribune here.
