Last night as members were returning from a call for a medical emergency, conducting truck checks, and equipment inspections; Red Hill Fire Company’s Engine 71 was dispatched to assist Upper Frederick Fire Company for an initial report of a woods fire

Shortly after the initial dispatch the assignment was upgraded to a building fire. This added Tanker 71 for water and Special Service 71 for manpower.

Unfortunately the building was well involved in fire upon arrival, and the building was a total loss.

No injuries to civilians or firefighters were reported, and all companies worked very well together.
