Co. 1 (1st due) Co. 5 (2nd due and RIT) were assigned to 1170 Heightsview Dr for a house fire at 17:15. Command 5 arrived (with 2) and Wagon 5 arrived (with 2) to comply with 2 in 2 out, to find heavy fire showing from all 4 sides of the home. Chief 5 Styles pulled a 2 1/2  along with the  firefighter from the wagon and RS 2 (Hawkins) and started knocking the fire down. They would advance the 2 1/2 to the interior once the porch was knocked down and they could see the doorway. Co. 1 units arrived and pulled 1 3/4 and assisted to knock fire down on the interior as well. Also place ground ladders on all four sides. After an extended overhaul crews would return to service. Crews worked together as always to make sure everyone returned home safely.
