At 4:38 PM the company was alerted for a wild fire behind 176 Brothers Court. As units were approaching the area a large volume of smoke could be seen from Rt. 322, at this same time Police Department personnel were arriving on scene and advising of a working tree house fire and that residents had the fire contained with a garden hose.
The call was then held to Engine 510 and Tanker 520. Tanker 520 arrived on scene prior to the engine and began to stretch a 1 3/4" hand line to extinguish the fire. Engine 510 arrived shortly after 520 and assisted with stretching the hand line. The crew from Engine 510 then extinguished the fire and performed some brief overhaul of the area.
