On Saturday, September 12 at approximately 22:12 hours CCECC dispatched Company 5 to the Ambassador Building, 412 E Beaver Avenue for a building fire with reports of smoke issuing from the door of an apartment on the top floor. Engine 510 and Chief 502 (Kuchmay) arrived within a minute and a half of dispatch and confirmed active smoke with some heat radiated to the door. Engine 510 officer (Lesak 595) requested the leader line into the stairwell as this building is non sprinklered and has no standpipe. Upon forcing the door of the apartment, the crew found a smoldering fire involving the stove with extension to the cabinets above. Crews extinguished the fire, ventilated, and checked for extension. The apartment tenant was not home at the time of the fire. The apartment suffered moderate fire damage in the kitchen and heavy  smoke damage throughout.  Units cleared at approximately 23:21 hours.

Units on Scene: Engines 510, 512, 513, Truck 517, Rescue 518, SCPD, Fire Police 536, Centre LifeLink EMS
In the Command: Assistant Chief N. Kuchmay (502)
